What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is secular and lighthearted. Any peril mentioned (such as a pet getting stuck) is handled with a focus on the funny resolution rather than trauma. There are no depictions of animal cruelty; the 'badness' is framed as mischievous or instinctual behavior.
