Dave Wood reviews books for ECM Publications in Wisconsin

Dave posted this review of Rhino, which subsequently appeared in online in the Hometown SourceNew Richmand News on July 29, 2008.

Here’s the ultimate book for animal lovers: “The Rhino with Glue-on Shoes, edited by Lucy Spelman and Ted Mashima (Delacorte, $22). Spelman and Mashima are high-powered veterinarians who have cobbled together an olio of stories about animals in trouble who have been treated by talented medical people. Read about a root canal performed on a three thousand pound hippo, spinal surgery on a kangaroo, a moray eel diagnosed with anorexia. This fascinating book is punctuated with a series of color photos of animals printed on glossy paper.
