Hank el cuida-mascotas

This book was reviewed by a Spanish language teacher at River Ridge High School. She notes that this book has an interesting plot about a boy, Hank, who wants to pet-sit to raise money to repair his bike which his dad ran over. But the book spends most of the time on one pet pig that he struggles to care for until a friend helps him with it. She thought that there were several holes in the story, like not providing information on what actually happened to his bike. It is not mentioned in the book itself; only in the synopsis at the back of the book. The story just starts abruptly with his first client showing up in his kitchen and asking if pet-sitting included sitting for pigs, too. She later realized that this book is the 2nd in a series of 4. Each book focuses on one particular animal that Hank takes care of and the first book probably explains what happened to his bike and the final book likely will tell the reader if he achieves his goal of earning enough money to buy a new one. There were some accent marks missing throughout the book, which may affect the communication between the past and present tense. She imagines that most readers would look past this. With that and that readers may feel the story is incomplete, she has reservations about recommending this book, especially if the library did not have all copies in the series.
