This is a wonderful picture book of poems about various animals. The poems are well-written and engaging as a read-aloud for young children. For older children, this book could be paired with non-fiction books about the animals featured for personal or classroom study. Steve Jenkins is a favorite illustrator of mine and in this book, he does not disappoint!
