Just Beware

The book itself is fun. It gives a great peek into the world of veterinary medicine broken down into chunks for kids. It allows the profession to come alive for the child and gives them an opportunity to see the reality of the job versus what they may romanticize it to be. My warning is for this listing in particular. I just want others to learn from my experience. I ordered from this listing and was sent an abridged version of this book that was made in partnership with Chick-Fil-A as a kid's meal toy. I expected the full 64 page, 9.5 x 8" version with games and stickers and received a 15 page, 6 x 8" activity booklet with no stickers. Just to be clear, I ordered the full version someplace else and it's great. I highly recommend it. But there's not an ISBN difference to be able to tell if this listing will grant you the abridged or unabridged version. So, unlike me, be ready and don't wait to generate a return if you get the wrong version.
