No. 39 Animal Surgery
by Chinlun Lee
Description
No. 39 Animal Surgery is set in Chinlun's husband's veterinary surgery, with many details taken from real life events. Chunlun has disguised herself in the narrative as the surgery's pet cat who can understand the conversations between the animals and record them on paper.
Filled with the most adorable characters, such as the dog seeking refuge and another who lost its owner in the market, the sneezing and coughing cat, the stubborn rabbit who hates to chew but needs its teeth cut and the dizzy butterfly, this is a charming story of one vet's loving care for all the animals that come through the doors of his No. 39 Animal Surgery.

Author Biography
About the author Chinlune Lee
Chinlun Lee is a picture book writer and illustrator. She received her M.A. in illustration from the Royal College of Art.
Her work has won many accolades, including Best Children's Book of the Year from the Openbook Awards, Editor's Choice from Amazon.com, featured author from Eslite's online magazine, and Author of the Year from the China Times weekly book supplement.
For years, Chinlun has devoted over half of her time to the animals around her. At first it was mostly dogs, but eventually there were more and more cats. Her observations of the animal-human relationship, and how they act around each other, have inspired her works. She hopes that her books can reach adult readers as well as children, saying that she hopes to "change how people think of and treat animals, in a quite, gentle and non-abrasive way."
Her published works as an illustrator include: No. 39 Animal Surgery, Paw in the Surgery, Love Forever, The Light from a Window Seat, Talking About Cat, Everyday is a Good Day, What Chubby Cheeks Taught Me, and That's How We Love Them. Her published works in the children's picture book category include: Spit the Seeds, 23, Uncle Wolf, Close the Door Gently, The Very Kind Rich Lady and Her One Hundred Dogs, and Good Dog, PAW!
