Familiar
I'm reading a book right now where two of the characters in it have "bond" animals. These animals helped them do their jobs and were an intregal part of their lives. They brought comfort and companionship. A familiar part of their lives if you will. :)
So when I looked at the word familiar I thought hmm...that would be a different take on this word wouldn't it? To talk about "familiars"...those animals that are a distinct part of our lives. You can think of them in witchy terms, or on fantasy terms, or you can think like I do. Animals that are part of our lives that make a difference to how we live.
You know what? I love Lonely Planet Kids books. I find them to be well made and very interesting. The Big Earth Book is no different. You are invited to discover how earth, air, fire and water shaped the world that we live ... take a tour to discover the past, the present and the future of our world.
