Do Unto Animals – A Friendly Guide to How Animals Live and How We Can Make Their Lives Better by Tracey Stewart.
The more we know about animals, the better we can care for them, and the better their lives, and ours, will be. Former animal advocate and veterinary technician, Tracey Stewart, understands this better than most—and she’s on a mission to change how we interact with animals.
Through hundreds of stunning illustrations, a few homemade projects, and her knowledgeable, humorous voice, Stewart provides insight into the secret lives of animals and the kindest ways to live alongside them.
At home, she shows readers how to speak “dog-ese” and “cat-ese” and how to “virtually adopt” an animal. In the backyard, we learn about dealing kindly with pesky moles, building bee houses, and creative ways to bird-watch. And on the farm, Stewart teaches us what we can do to help all farm animals lead a better life.
Part memoir of her life with animals, part practical guide, and part testament to the power of giving back, Do Unto Animals is a gift for animal lovers of all kinds. It is beautifully illustrated by Lisel Ashlock. Animals give us so much. Isn’t it time we give back?

Reviews of Do Unto Animals
“Charming. . . . A memoir and how-to about enriching the world of the creatures in your life, whether they be dogs, cats, or the crows in your backyard. . . . The book details basic animal behavior as well as practical humane solutions to common animal-human conflicts (cats scratching furniture, moles destroying your lawn). It also has craft projects for those of us with great intentions and no skills.”
—New York Times
“A guide to understanding animals and treating them with respect. . . . While the book is about loving and caring for animals, it also follows Tracey’s path to happiness through animals.”
—Gayle King on CBS This Morning
“A one-of-a-kind mix of info, advice, philosophy and hands-on activities.”
—Philadelphia Daily News
“Gives readers not only facts and advice, but also smart and caring ways to improve animals’ existences.”

Well done. I love animals, i always have and always will. I bought a couple of little parrots to my daughter for christmas and the little birds add life and joy to our house.
It is important to understand animals, their needs and desires. Some people think they are just like humans. To care for them you need to know how they function. Maybe this book is just what is needed to teach people this.
Thank you Jojo!
