Summary of Source (Three-Four Sentences of the Who, What, Where, Why, and How in your own words. NO OPINION): 

Credibility of Source: 
Author or Editor: Who is the author? What training have they had? If there is no author, examine the editor. 
 The author of Animal Rights is Sunni Bloyd. She has had training living in Orange a city in Florida. She went to a University there and published more than two books about animal cruelty.
Attachment: Does the author or editor have anything to gain from writing this, or is it simply informative? 
This book is simply informative for all the readers to gain knowledge about animal abuse. So, that these readers can understand how serious this situation is. Also, so they can understand how cruel it is and go fight for it.

Bias: Do you detect a bias (a favoring of either side) in the author's writing? 

Yes, I think that animal abuse should be immediately stopped. I think this because animals are just like humans and if you test out something on a dog it would the same thing on a human being meaning the same pain. If we don't want to be experiments to a lab test that means animals don't want to be experiments to a lab test.
Use of Source: How will you use this source in your project? 
 I will use the examples from this story in my writing because it will help support my topic better. It will show my readers that animal experimentations are cruel. It will show them how testing products on animals is the same thing as testing products on humans.
