This book is a collection of poems about the scariest creatures of the animal kingdom like sharks, snakes and bats, but it's done with a fun and colorful twist. Some of the poems rhyme and others have important messages like being kind to animals. The illustrations in the book are realistic, but friendly and the front and back covers make an entire alligator. As a reader, I liked that the poems had a humorous touch and I feel they would appeal to both poetry and animal lovers alike. As a teacher, this would be a great book to read aloud and I would have students create art projects about an animals in the book or write about something new they learned about one of the creatures. Students could also take turns acting out the movements of the different animals mentioned.
