With public concern for the well-being of animals and the environment greater than ever, this is a book for anyone who cares about the earth and its inhabitants.

·Recognizing hidden animal ingredients in cosmetics and other household products

With this new handbook, Newkirk has written a mainstream book for everyone-parents, kids, busy career-minded adults, people concerned with animal rights, or even those who simply share their home with a companion animal but who don’t consider themselves activists for any social cause. "Making Kind Choices" is filled with easy, everyday ways for anyone to live a kind and more compassionate life. Says Newkirk, “The goal of this book is to help people who, like me, want to make the most out of not only the special occasions, but the everyday parts of their lives, even their chores. It is meant to provide positive change opportunities that will enhance our lives in ways generations before us were denied. It shows a way to live life to its fullest and most meaningful by becoming a more caring person in many ways, big and small.”
