Curl and cosy up to these heartwarming tales about the magical bond about man and animal.

Have you ever wished to peer into the minds of animals and see the world through their eyes? While impossible, it is still interesting to imagine what animals would say if they had the gift of speech. This notion has long been explored by the literary world, but has hardly been exhausted.

Even today, animals remain a popular topic among contemporary writers. While most of these novels lean towards the fantastical, animals have also been the subject of more realistic stories. Though about beast rather than beings, they have helped us explore the depth of our own humanity.

If you’re the sort that would rather prefer the company of such books to most humans, then this list of novels is for you. From White Fang and The Jungle Book to The Golden Compass and Charlotte’s Web, we round up our favourite literary works for animal lovers.
