This book, although primarily written for children, addresses what I believe is a very important issue that should be given more attention, and that is the importance of the role humans have in the life system of our planet, that we have been given dominion over this earth, and over the animals that dwell on it. When we don't do it God's way, the animals, as well as the rest of the earth, suffer. Having said that, I do understand that there are times when we can no longer take care of the animal kingdom, and must relinquish it to others. Otherwise, we must do our best to care for that which God has given us dominion over, which includes the animals.
