I really enjoyed 'The Travelling Vet' as a book which was informative, and witty. It was written in such a way that the anecdotes of each animal were relatable, whilst remaining amusing. I thoroughly enjoyed the range of animals written about - from cows to crocodiles! This both offered perspective, and a relief of a one sided account.
There was much emphasis on the role that humans play in the animal kingdom, where not everyone plays the role that they should. The images of exploitation of an animal's position were remarkably moving, and left real meaning on the reader.
This book was written with true sensitivity, and realism. It was unnecessary for the reader to be a so-called 'animal fan', as it was a charming read, with an intuitive touch to it.
