  • Comment: It might be advisable in this instance to rename the article. "Draft:Animals Problems" is a generic name for a group of specific books. The lead "Animal Problems" does not agree with the current title name. Animal Problems is rather vague so possibly "Animal Problems (children's book series)" might be appropriate.
