review 1: I love Steve Jenkins' work and have enjoyed all of his collaborations with his wife, Robin Page, that I have read so far. This one (as you can guess from the title) deals with how animals eat and what animals eat...especially some of the strange or unique ways/things animals eat. Both girls and boys in my class enjoyed this...equally fascinated and grossed out by animals such as the crucifix toad which has sticky skin. Bugs stick to it and then it sheds...eating its own skin along with the bugs stuck to the skin.
review 2: Love jenkins illustrations, which are so tactile and refined though they're done with torn paper. The tidbits about animals' eating eccentricities are perfect for capturing a child's attention - equally disgusting and fascinating (especia... morelly the butcherbird and the cruxifix toad - yuck - as the first skewers bugs on thorns, and the later traps bugs on its sticky skin, then sheds the skin and downs it!). less
