review 1: Simple, yet highly descriptive poems about animals, combine with simple, yet detailed collage art to form the perfect poetry book for young readers. Recommended for kindergarten through 3rd grade. Children could use these poems as a jumping off point for an animal research project. After I read "Wood Thrush," I immediately went on the internet to hear its call, which was so beautifully described in the poem. Five out of five stars.
review 2: Pug and Other Poems by Valerie Worth, illustrated by Steve JenkinsMargaret Ferguson Books, 201340 pagesPoetry Recommended for all ages!Valerie Worth is a master or words. We know her for taking the simple and putting the most perfect words with it. Be it a chair or a cow, Valerie can help us see it and appreciate it in an... more entirely new way. So of course, we expect nothing less of her here! Each short animal poem in this little collection is as darling and as true as we could ever hope to find. And the illustrations, the illustrations bring this to a new level. Steve Jenkins' beautiful collage work will have you appreciating the time and attention to detail of each animal image. This is needed in all of our poetry collections! less
