This is a well-written story with an important message - a per is a responsibility for life. But teachers need to be prepared ... there will be some children who'll be very distressed by this book - Use It With Care! Buster does find a good home in the end, but his bewilderment and distress as he's dumped beside a busy road is heart-rending for any adult - for children it can be devastating.
