review 1: This book is so fun and informative. I would be a great teaching tool for students. Each poem is about a different animal. The font is clear and easy to read and the content is interesting. Some of the poems rhyme and some do not which is also a great teaching tool. When they do rhyme the rhyme is natural and not awkward. Each poem is refreshingly unique and allows children to see each animal in a new way that they may not have thought of prior. I would keep this book on my bookshelf in the classroom.
review 2: A fun, fresh animal journey!Pack your bags and put on your travelin' shoes! There's an animal adventure waiting for you! Awake with the HOWLER MONKEYS, twist into a pretzel like a QUETZAL, hang with a SLOTH, be will-nilly like a CHINCHILLA. Squawk... more with an AUK, bump your rump like a CAMEL, be silly with a BILBY, and drift off to sleep in the deep of the OUTBACK. Fun-filled and fact-packed, AROUND THE WORLD ON EIGHTY LEGS is the ticket for an unforgettable adventure! YAKThe yakkity yakkity yakkity yak-Why is it the yak never answers you back?To a yak, nothing's worseThan to have to converse-The yakkity yakkity yak.Cute idea - too much to read at one setting. The animals are grouped by continent and perhaps best read in segments like that. less
