Super Cool Pets Five-Star Recommended Read: All Creatures Great and Small by James Herriot

Looking for something good to read for yourself or another pet lover? One pet book on the Amazon bestseller list is All Creatures Great and Small
by James Herriot. We are not surprised. This book and the others in the series were fabulously popular 30 years ago and still hold up today.
If you haven't read these already, you have a treat ahead of you. As a young veterinarian fresh out of school, kindly Dr. Herriot, pseudonym for James Alfred Wight, joins Siegfried Farnon in his established country animal practice in rural England.
These Herriot books tell the absorbing, touching and sometimes humorous tale of the author's hands-on experience as a large animal vet on Yorkshire farms and as a small animal vet in town. You will enjoy his compassionate insights into human nature, as well as a look into his warm and wonderful personal life, with a vivid picture of pre- and post- WWII England.
The entire series is a treasure--we heartily recommend reading them all. At James Herriot
