Guinea Pigs: Family Pet Series by Katrin Behrend
Published in 1997 by Barron's Educational Series, Inc.
127 pages
Lots of pictures! Satins, babies, pigs eating, grooming
themselves.
Pictures and information on related, wild guinea pig species.
Some of the photo captions can be confusing as to the breed of the
guinea pig.
The book was translated from German and originally used the British
standards.
So some of the British and U.S. breed names are intermixed.
