Hi, everyone!


This is my wrap-up post for the What An Animal Reading Challenge IV hosted by Yvonne at Socrates' Book Reviews.

CHALLENGE COMPLETED!

The challenge was to read 6 books that have any of the following requirements:

a. there is an animal in the title of the book


b. there is an animal on the cover of the book


c. an animal plays a major role in the book


d. a main character is (or turns into) an animal (define that however you'd like). The animal can be any type of animal (real or fictitious)--dog, cat, monkey, wolf, snake, insect, hedgehog, aardvark...dragon, mermaid, centaur, vampire, werewolf...you get the idea...
