For Poetry Friday -- "Animal Snackers" by Betsy Lewin.
Lewin's
revised book invites young readers to discover the menu preferences of twelve
animals ranging from gorilla and platypus
to ostrich and koala. Each four-line verse offers a whimsical description of
eating habits that is both humorous and accurate. The simplicity of language
makes the poetry appealing for young readers. A page of Animal Facts provides an interesting
detail and the locality of each animal. This new version of an old favorite is
filled with delightful watercolors and is worth a look.
Thanks for sharing this book!
