awesome book, awesome lesson.......2005-12-28
the illustrations are what got me interested in this book when I got it from a book club as a kid. It teaches a good lesson about money and how to not act spoiled, and the idea that money should not make you greedy
Trouble with Money.......2005-12-10
I like this book because it showed me not to spend all the money i receive for special occassions on things that i may not need but i want very badly. It showed me that i need to be very careful with money and that spending it on everything isn't always a good choice.
Alyssa Seifferly
great book.......2000-07-09
This is an excellent book it really helps kids learn about money. The illustrations are perfect for my four year old

Customer Reviews:
Excellent Resource for Aspiring Trainers!.......2007-05-12
This is an excellent source, full of useful advice on the ins and outs of putting together a dog training business. It does not go into training techniques, so you'll definitely need other books on methodology along with this one, which is strictly business. I think she's a bit conservative in her advice, which is probably necessary to publish and avoid liability. However, it can be a little discouraging to think that ALL OF THAT is necessary - just realize, it may not be. But it certainly has EVERYTHING you need!
Great How To Manual for Dog Trainers.......2006-06-09
Way to go, Nicole! She explains the business of dog training in a useful way! It explains some of the nuts and bolts of building a dog-training business as well as some useful manners and practical ethics.
Written for Everyone to Understand.......2006-03-11
Down to earth.. easy to follow.. lots of great information, reference & direction. A must read for anyone looking at training as a profession or just wanting to read a great book on the how too's. She writes in a logical down to earth fashion with humor. I loved this book.
Required Reading for People Considering Dog Training as a Career.......2005-08-22
This book was helpful in the sense that it puts all of the considerations in black and white. If you think you have thought of everything, I'll bet you find something in this book that may have slipped your mind.
I like Nicole's matter-of-fact approach. Her writing style makes this book an easy read.
Up and Running.......2005-07-23
I found this book very helpful,it explained the pitfalls of group training and one on one training,I am already a dog trainer but after i had read the book I changed a few things.

Product Description
In Growing Up With Loukoumi by Nick Katsoris, a lamb named Loukoumi (Greek for sweet ) struggles with what she wants to be when she grows up. She considers becoming a firefighter, a judge or a doctor. As she walks along, she encounters her friends including Gus the bear, Fistiki the cat, Dean the dog and Marika the monkey. Each friend explains to Loukoumi that she can be whatever her heart desires. If she wants to be a singing star, a policeman or even an Oscar winning actress, then she can do it! The key is that she must always believe in herself, stay positive and work hard, because if you believe in yourself your dreams will come true! The CD version of the book (included) features the voices of singing legend Gloria Gaynor, (Grammy Award winner for I Will Survive) Oscar-winning actress Olympia Dukakis, national CBS correspondent and MarketWatch anchor Alexis Christoforous, American Idol Heartthrob Constantine Maroulis of American Idol fame, and Guiding Light actor Frank Dicopoulos. Each voices a character that encourages Loukoumi to reach for her dreams, which is especially meaningful when being heard from such inspirational and successful adults. The package also includes an original song from Gloria Gaynor called, Believe.

WORTH HAVING.......2007-03-21
I BOUGHT THE BOOK BECAUSE PART OF THE PROCEEDS GO TO MAKE-A-WISH. IT IS A GOOD BOOK TO OWN.
an excellent message for children.......2007-03-09
The important message of "If you beleive in yourself, you can become whatever you want to be" is so simple yet essential. Children will love to travel this journey with the darling little lamb Loukoumi, and learn something valuable in the process. A great book for parents to read with their kids.
Another great book by this author.......2006-12-24
Great book for young children. You will not be disappointed.
Excellent Educational Book.......2006-11-18
This book is an excellent boost to any child's dreams. It is an inspiring book and has a positive message encouraging a child to go after their dreams and to work hard and that anything is possible. I highly recommend this book to any child. Children need positive enforcers in their life. Constantine Maroulis from American Idol, also the star in two Broadway shows, "The Wedding Singer" and "Jaquels Brel" beginning Jan 9th in New York, is funny, and enlightening to the kids who love him.
You can be what you dream.......2006-11-08
This is a favorite in my classroom! Loukoumi explores many jobs, from farmer to singer, in this sweet story. The CD features many successful Greek people and is beautifully done. Rocker Constantine Maroulis as Farmer Gus is priceless!

Customer Reviews:
A VERY helpful book.......2006-10-20
I'm a college student with a passion for art and horses. This book has really helped me in finding a way to have a career that involves both. It also has additional sources for information, internships, etc.
Good book. .......2005-09-17
This is for my daughter who needs some career direction. It is helpful regarding education, who to contact, and expected salary.
My daughter aspires to be a mounted police officer; this particular career description is very vague. The book just suggests that interested parties contact the local law enforcement agency for details
. Even though it lacked info regarding mounted police officer, just about all other imaginable careers are listed and described.
Book Description
A much-needed guide to animal-related professions, Careers with Animals is a vital resource for the animal lover looking to plan his or her future. Author Ellen Shenk provides straightforward and accurate introductions to a wide range of potential careers--everything from familiar jobs such as veterinarian and zookeeper to cat breeder, animal chiropractor, dog show judge, and other more unusual pursuits. Also included are numerous fascinating profiles of real-life professionals, who give honest looks at the many challenges and unique rewards of working with animals. Includes in-depth profiles of individuals who work with animals every day and provides current information on salaries, educational requirements, and job outlook, along with job information resources.
Customer Reviews:
Questionable if you love animals.......2006-09-08
I was acutely made aware of how "careers with animals" is a different concept to "careers for those who *love* animals". The section on farming (which includes veal production) describes its practices so benignly - with no acknowledgement of the horrendous cruelties these poor animals endure. I tossed the book aside in disappointment and disgust. There may well be some useful information in the other sections but the book was already tainted for me. My recommendation is that if you truly care about the welfare of animals you should look elsewhere.
If You Can Talk to the Animals ..........2006-07-31
Ellen Shenk, author of Outdoor Careers, follows up with Careers With Animals, and it is every bit as accessible and readable. All the lists and specific information you will need for planning and executing your search are here--sources, possibilities, definitions, salary ranges. But aside from the practical, the author shines her best light: she makes you think about intangibles--your suitability, your personality, the realities you might encounter with your choice, and the like. As with Outdoor Careers, she includes interviews with "real people" who give their first-person accounts of their everyday vocational experiences.
Career options range from breeding and treating animals to being a show judge or working for a zoo or aquarium.......2005-08-06
Readers who are animal lovers and who dream of working with animals often stop at the idea of being a vet: in actuality, there's so much more available, as Careers With Animals: Exploring Occupations Involving Dogs, Horses, Cats, Birds, Wildlife And Exotics demonstrates. Career options range from breeding and treating animals to being a show judge or working for a zoo or aquarium. An organization by animal type - marine, horses, birds, wild animals - makes it easy to hone in more specifically to careers with particular types of animals. Very highly recommended.
Book Description
Animal lovers can find exciting careers as horse trainers and groomers, dog trainers, animal show handlers, veterinary assistants, wildlife guides, park rangers, and more. The author discusses the special aptitudes animal handlers must have and tells readers how to make crucial contacts that lead to employment in these fields. Titles in the practical and enlightening Success Without College series guide ambitious young men and women toward satisfying and well-paying careers in fields where a college degree is not required. However, all occupations described do require specialized training, either on the job or in technical or vocational classroom settings. Readers learn how and where to get that training, then find out how to get started on the highway to career success.

An upbeat, educational book.......2000-02-28
This is an excellent book with elements that will grab a child's interest--a loving dog and a fireman's life. The story is told using photos of actual activities at a fire station and the Dalmatian they keep as a pet. The photos give a vivid account of a fireman's lifestyle. It first explains the equipment they use then it shows some of their activities when not at a fire. I particularly liked the sequence beginning with the firemen sitting down at a table ready to enjoy dinner. They're relaxed and chatting away in idle conversation when the firebell rings. In the next photo you see them rushing away from the table with stern looks, all business. The following photo shows them sliding down the pole and diving into their gear. Then they're racing away to the fire. Threaded throughout the story is the lovingly treated dalmatian who also has his responsibilities at the station. The book is interesting, educational, action-oriented, and real.
Book Description
Features such jobs as horse farm owner, veterinarian, exotic animal trainer, and bird handler/interpreter.
