All of our bargain books are brand new, perfectly readable and represent a tremendous value!
The bargain books are, however, publisher overstocks and remainders that TRW purchases at
deep discounts. As a result, they may have a small mark through the UPC bar code or a small
mark on the side of the book. This is simply to mark the books so they cannot be sent back to
a publisher. Because of this, bargain books are non returnable to TRW unless they are damaged.
Please consider this before ordering.

| ISBN: 9780873587945 Author: Johnston, Tony Publisher: Rising Moon Books Published: February 2002 Retail: $15.95 OUR PRICE: $3.09 You Save 81% Binding Type: Hardcover Annotation: Animals are everywhere in this collection of 32 amusing, mostly new rhymes. The poems, none longer than 10 lines, cover creatures both familiar (parrot, caterpillar, goat) and less so (sloth, javelina, quetzal). Johnston's pithy humor shines through, from "Two of a Kind," which features an octopus in love with a bath mat to the witty aplomb of "To the Lady of the House, from a Mouse" ("About the feather/that is missing on your hat-/I ate it"). The author plays with language and rhyme in a way that will draw kids in, and sneaks in a few lessons about animal physiology as well. Park's outlandish, computer-generated illustrations match the tone of the poems for the most part, but a few have a harsh, surreal quality that some children may find off-putting. However, the bright colors and judicious use of white space make this an approachable and fun choice. |
