Reviews
Kindergarten-Grade 3-Using a familiar format, this author and illustrator team has created a dynamite book. For each letter of the alphabet there is a mystery animal whose identity can be guessed from clues in the accompanying rhyming riddle. The first and last letter of the creatures' names are also provided. Many are familiar-monkey, snail, and turtle, for example; but several not so familiar beasts-newt, quail, and zebu-also stalk these pages. The rhymes are packed with vivid descriptions: "I'm five letters long. I start with a Q./I roam through the woods/and through grassy fields, too./Bob-Bob-white! I chatter/while my noisy wings clatter./People hunt me for game./Can you guess my name?" At the end of the book, the animals are listed, along with a page of "Ideas for Parents and Teachers." The full-color illustrations are also splendidly mysterious, for only a part of each animal is depicted. The appealing cover in bold colors will draw children to this book while the riddles will captivate them.
