Description
"Step right up, animal lovers! It's your turn to judge in this poetic competition of superlative animal abilities. Structured as a guessing game competition, and told through deftly crafted persona poems, the book celebrates animals' standout qualities, from the biggest (blue whale) to the smallest (shrew), with all the favorite creatures (speedy cheetahs, long-necked giraffes) plus some less common animals with equally amazing abilities (long-lived tortoises, deep-dwelling snailfish and more). Each playful persona poem is told from the point of view of a different animal and invites readers to guess who's the fastest flyer, strongest biter, best artist -- even the smelliest! The entertaining, spirited poems are followed by a page turn that shows readers if their guess was correct and offers non-fiction information about each critter. At the end of the book, readers are invited to pick their favorite creature -- but with poems this charming, and bright illustrations full of personality, it will be hard to choose. This winning combination of animal science and poetry is a perfect pick for even the youngest animal lovers."--,Provided by publisher.
