Hooligan Magooligan Loves Her Pets by Louise Lintvelt


Rating: WORTHY!

Illustrated wonderfully by Julie Sneeden, this book is a visit to Hooligan's home, and a chance to meet her pets. It's a little too small to read on a smart phone, be warned, so you'll need either the print version or a pad to read it on. This is the fifth I've read and reviewed of Louise Lintvelt's books, and she was batting only five hundred prior to this. This improves her rating to sixty percent.

Hooligan has two cats and two dogs and actually isn't a hooligan at all - that's just her name. The book is not just about pets - it carries a message about acceptance, and how it's normal, ordinary, fine, and expected, that we enjoy diversity. I think that's a good message to convey and a great way to convey it. I recommend this one.
