“Oscar and Emmy Visit the Vet” is a delightful children’s book that takes young readers on a furry adventure to the veterinarian’s office. Written by Terri Sabol and beautifully illustrated by Roksana Oslizlo, this book introduces kids to the importance of regular pet check-ups and how to care for their animal companions.
The story follows Oscar and Emmy, two curious cats, as they embark on a vet visit. Through their eyes, children learn that going to the vet isn’t just for when fur babies are sick—it’s a routine part of keeping pets healthy. Just like kids have yearly check-ups, our pets need them too! The book encourages children to actively participate in maintaining their pets’ health and recognize early signs if something is amiss. From dental care to vaccinations, the colorful infographics provide valuable information in an engaging way.
As someone who appreciates both adorable illustrations and meaningful messages, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Terri Sabol strikes a balance between education and entertainment, making it accessible for young readers. And let’s be honest—anything that encourages kids to care for their pets is a win in my book!

Oscar and Emmy Visit Grandma (Oscar and Emmy Series) by Terri Sabol – Review by Cindy Rushin

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this book because it really shows what pets can experience when they are left in a new environment. This book dealt with pets having to be boarded while the family was away on vacation. Thankfully it was with the grandmother but for the Oscar and Emmy it was still an unfamiliar place and scary for them. I highly recommend this series and author to parents with children who have or are interested in adopting a pet as it provides many helpful tips and suggestions on how to make the pet feel safe and loved.

This is a cute little story. I love this series for children because it’s a fun way for kids to learn about what is all involved with having a pet. This story explores what happens when you take your pet to the vet. It illustrates how a pet can find the experience a little frightening and what the child can do to help them cope. I recommend this series of stories to parents who have children with pets as it helps them learn about their pets and how to take care of them.

Oscar and Emmy Visit Grandma: A travel adventure story about when Grandma watches the pets! Ages 3-8 kindergarten to 2nd grade by Terri Sabol – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.

Oscar and Emmy Visit GrandmaOscar and Emmy Visit Grandma by Terri Sabol

Oscar and Emmy’s family are going on a cruise, but what will happen to Oscar and Emmy while they are away, what if they are left on their own the whole time? These are the questions being asked, but lucky for Oscar and Emmy, they are going to stay with Grandma!

So off they go in their crate to visit somewhere new, they are both a little scared and so they hide until they feel comfortable, but then the adventures start for both them and Grandma too!

This is a wonderful story which talks about the serious job of pet sitting from the viewpoint of a family member who can’t wait to spoil their new visitors. It is educational in a very fun way which anyone will be able to enjoy and understand.

Another magnificent book by one of our favorite authors! This is part of the Oscar and Emmy series, and if you haven’t read any of them yet, this is your sign. You can read these in any order you’d like so no worrying about where to start. My two kiddos and I sat down to read this book full of excitement. We read about how to properly take care of our furry family which means also taking them to the vet. It was cute to see my youngest give pep talks to our cats as he tried to give them strength even though it can be scary. As with the others in the series, this book is just as beautifully illustrated all while being incredibly educational. This would make a fantastic addition to a classroom, daycare, or home library. Share this with all the younger ones in your lives to spread the word about cat care!

The Oscar and Emmy series is one of our favorites in our household, so everyone was excited when I brought a new one home! The illustrations are absolutely beautiful and definitely add another layer to the story itself. It also helps keep younger kids’ attention as well as provides context clues. It is a well-timed read since we are planning a vacation, and my kiddos are a little anxious that our fur-mily can’t come with us this time. This is a very educational and informative read to be enjoyed by all ages. It would be a perfect addition to a home library, school, or daycare to share with the young ones in your life.

Once again, Terri Sabol bridges the gap between people and understanding their pets. Oscar and Emmy are due for their annual checkups in this one and Charlie and Abby learn about all the ways they can help their pets at home. Brushing them daily and helping their teeth. This series always has such an amazingly informative story with beautiful illustrations and step by step information in the back on ways to help your pets.

Oscar and Emmy are off on another heartwarming adventure – this time to Grandma’s house! This beautifully written and illustrated picture book gives the perspective of and attention to the feelings of children who are leaving pets behind whilst on holiday. However it also gives insight into the feelings of Oscar and Emmy too and helps to explain why cats (and other animals) behave the way they do in a new environment! Another great read and I look forward to reading more of what Oscar and Emmy get up to!

Lots of books talk about feeding cats and playing with them but this book gently explains what happens when you take your cat to the vet and some finer details of comprehensive pet care. The characters are warm and familiar with the children asking age appropriate questions that the readers may have themselves without making it a dry, how to book. Great for children of all ages!

Oscar and Emmy are about to set off on a new adventure, it is time to go to the vets for their yearly check up, but they do not want to go in the carriers and keep escaping!

When they get to the vet, they are signed in by the receptionist and then they go into the room with the actual vet, but now they don’t want to get out of the carriers!

However, the vet is really good and goes through all of their checks, but is it as scary as they thought and what will the vet be checking? This is a wonderful way to introduce children to the importance of vet visits and how to keep their cats healthy in an easily understandable way.

We always love reading Oscar and Emmy adventures; this one was no different. Going to grandmas is always a blast and for these little kitties it is even better.The story follows Oscar and Emmy as they experience a fun-filled trip to their Grandma’s house. Sabol’s writing is accessible and rhythmic, with a focus on the sights and activities that make a visit to Grandma’s special. The text is complemented by bright, colorful illustrations that bring the story to life and highlight the warm, familial atmosphere. The author also did a fantastic job at capturing the joy and excitement of a visit to a grandparent’s house through the eyes of two lovable pets. I totally can’t wait for more of their adventure.

Oscar any Emmy Visit the Vet is a children’s book about vet care for animals. They require regular checkups to stay healthy and require a few things at home to keep them healthy and from having to visit the vet as often as well. It details a lot of things in the last few pages that will help you know what to do. I thought this was easily understood, had great pictures, and was well thought out. I enjoyed it.

This was a cute addition to the Oscar and Emmy series of children’s books. In this one Abby, Charlie, and their family are going on a trip, and even though they want to take their kitties on the trip with them they know that the best place for them is at grandmas house. Grandma enjoys having the kitties, and they enjoy watching all of grandmas visitors. I think this was a fun way to look at what to do with your animals when going anywhere and may help to give comfort if the need arises to do so. Even through a little mishap everything turned out wonderful.

This book is yet another fantastic adventure from Oscar and Emmy. This was a perfectly timed read for us as we were due to visit the doctors, which my son really doesn’t like. This book was a great way to show him how ever animals have to visit the doctors, and that it can be fun. He didn’t enjoy it still but he loved pointing out all of the things that were similar to the story we had just read – and all of the things that were different.
I loved how this author finds a way to connect with her intended audience every time. The books teach them something new without it feeling like they do. The stories are fun and entertaining, this one included. We are already looking forward to the next one we read.

The Oscar and Emmy series is one that has very quickly become a firm favourite in our household. The kids love learning more about their adventures with each new book and I think this one has to be the one they have enjoyed the most so far. One of our favourite things to do is visit Grandma (or Nanny as they call her) so they loved the idea of Oscar and Emmy doing the same.
The author has created such a fun and vibrant series that really entertains kids. It is teaching them some great things about pets and animals, but it is engaging at the same time. This is a brilliant series and I think one we all enjoy!

Oscar and Emmy Visit the Vet is another excellent addition to a fun and educational series for children.

In this book, the children take their sweet kitties, Oscar and Emmy, to the vet for their yearly check-ups. The children and the kitties are slightly nervous, but the adults are great at calming their nerves. The book also highlights the importance of annual exams for pets.

The book’s educational value is a key highlight. It actively involves children in the care of their pets, teaching them about brushing their cat’s teeth, trimming their nails, and the importance of vaccinations. This fun and engaging approach to pet care education is a hallmark of the series. As always, the latest book is a fun and educational read that actively involves both parents and children.

This is yet again another great book from this author. I really wish that my kids were young enough as this is a great way to help children learn about taking their pets to the vet. The author has a great way to introduces subjects to kids and make it easy and fun to learn. The characters are realistic and the books themselves are very easy to read and understand. I really would recommend this author’s books to anyone with younger children. The author makes learning about certain situations really fun and easy and keeps the attention of the reader.

A book about how pets are taken care of when the family goes on vacation. Oscar and Emmy are staying with Grandma while the family is away. The cats might be unsure of the new location but soon find their way with Grandma’s help. Oscar and Emmy not only visit grandma but also meet some animals they’ve never seen before during their visit.
This book would be great for families to read before an short or extended trip. Love the illustration and story that I feel kids will relate to.

I love how educational Oscar and Emmy’s books are. The book Oscar and Emmy Visit the Vet is a great book for young pet owners. It helps explain why it is important to visit the vet, not just when your pet is injured or sick but also as a preventative. The book is written in a way for children to understand. It also goes over behaviors the pets might have when visiting the vet- like being scared or anxious. It also explains what anesthesia is, which I thought was pretty cool. There are additional pages after the story for cat owners to learn more about the routines we learned about in the book. The illustrations are so bright and colorful, and capture Oscar and Emmy’s individual personalities.

So they felt like part of the visit. This is a must have if you have pets. It keeps the children informed, as well as comfortable with Dr.s. This author did a fantastic job with this story. It was fast paced and easy to follow.

This is an important edition and a reminder that our furry family members should go to the vet not only when they’re sick but for regular checkups , vaccines, grooming and dentistry!

I loved that we got the pet’s perspective and that there are ways suggest to calm not only the little furry friends but also the family members 🥰🐾

Again , the illustrations are magnificent!

Everly library , rescue centre , SPCA and vet should have this series on hand …. My humble option ❣️📚🐾
