About the Book
This is a poetry book that includes twenty-four short poems about animals. Each poem is four to five stanzas long.

In most of the poems, the animals themselves are doing the talking. Most of the animals have a problem that needs to be solved. A humorous twist at the end of most of the poems solves the problem.
Purpose and Audience
The poems were created for memorization by first graders. After memorizing the poems, the children would create a suitable costume, stand before a microphone, and recite the poem to their parents and classmates for an end-of-the-year program.
