Books in All About Me Series series

Targeted at younger readers, the books in this series tell the lives of famous people from the past. They are also suitable for older readers with learning difficulties.

This title tells the life story of Shirley Hughes—from her early days in Liverpool to her first ventures into the world of illustration, and finally to her award-winning books.

Books in this instructive series are brief, good looking, inexpensively priced manuals that teach inexperienced adults and older children to be responsible for the ownership and care of animals. "Did You Know?" sidebar features present sometimes surprising, always amusing little-known facts about each book's subject animal. The main focus is advice on tending the animals--feeding them correct foods in proper amounts, and keeping them in a healtful environment. Full-color photos throughout.
