The thorough yet equally spirited science notes complement the poems... Once again, Bulion awes--and ewws--readers with facts disguised as fun." --Booklist, STARRED REVIEW<br><br>"Delightful... The joyful poems beg to be read aloud... The jaunty illustrations amplify the text's humor....a fun and informative addition for nature lovers." --School Library Journal<br><br>"A completely satisfying package... It's impossible not to warm to herpetology after reading aloud poems... Meganck's wry cartoons amplify the humor. The backmatter, strong as the main text, serves young readers well but will also spur teachers interested in multidisciplinary units on to new heights... Child readers and educators will find themselves enthralled by short, punchy poems and the science behind them." --Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW<br>
