Pets Around the World
Jackson
1965
Submitter: This book may not qualify as “Awful,” but it is indeed outdated! The image that was a particular favourite of mine depicts a young naked Galapagos boy and his pet turtle. Yes, children… the wild child savage of the Galapagos Islands has a gigantic sea turtle pet that takes him for rides in the ocean!
Holly: That’s kind of cool! But yes…outdated for sure. The kid on the turtle (and the kid on his bike, too) are likely in their 60’s now.
