Melson examines children’s many connections to animals and to explore their developmental significance. She looks not only at the therapeutic power of pet-owning for children with handicaps, but also the ways in which zoo and farm animals, and even certain TV characters, become confidants or teachers for children—and sometimes, their victims.
