The Zoo Vet Alphabet takes readers on an alphabetical tour of the wildlife patients treated by Dr. Scott Amsel throughout his 30-year career as an exotic animal veterinarian. Dr. Amsel's work included the L.A. Zoo, Disney's Animal Kingdom, "Vet on the Set" for two television series, trips overseas with the Orangutan Foundation and caring for grizzlies, elephants and tigers at wildlife facilities around the United States. Sheri Amsel, an author and illustrator of over 25 children's books (and the doctor's younger sister) accompanied Dr. Amsel on many of his animal adventures, photographing veterinary procedures and wildlife to create this story. The Zoo Vet Alphabet is a great companion guide for school groups or families making trips to the zoo. The rhyming verse and colorful photographs also make an entertaining introduction to wild animals for young children.
