Kelli L. Hicks - Author
A focused introduction to how companion and therapy animals may support people with particular needs. Its visual features and fact boxes suggest a structured way into ideas about training, assistance and safety.
Companion and therapy animals have become a vital part of today's world. Soldiers returning from war with issues like PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), people with physical limitations like blindness, hearing problems, or social disorders can all be helped by these loving animal companions. Trained to be aware of their owners' warning signs or triggers, they come to the rescue with the skills needed to save lives and maintain the safety of their human companions. Beautiful pictures with captions, text boxes filled with interesting facts and information are all included in this informational text. This book will allow students to describe the overall structure (e.g., chronology, comparison, cause/effect, problem/solution) of events, ideas, concepts, or information in a text or part of a text.

Some readers may need support with references to soldiers returning from war, PTSD, physical limitations and safety. Pause to clarify unfamiliar terms without assuming the book explains every experience fully.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
