"[S]ufficient suckers and lappers of blood, ranging from fleas and mosquitoes to vampire bats, lampreys, and leeches, to gleefully put anyone off their lunch."--Kirkus Reviews, "The colorful, comical illustrations bring about a lively scene and show animals with highly expressive facial features. Teachers may want to add this title as a literature connection to a study on animals or animal features." -Children's Literature, "What do a pigeon, a butterfly, and a stingray have in common? They all suck! To be more precise, a pigeon sucks water, a butterfly sucks nectar, and a stingray sucks in food. There are other animals that suck too, as well as a few creatures that are believed to suck but don't. The authors clarify the facts about which animals do and don't suck in rhyming text, then provide additional information at the back of the book with further notes. For readers who want to pursue more information, they include an annotated list of books. Two glossaries are included for readers' reference. One list is specific to the anatomical part that sucks, and the other list includes the other scientific terms used in the main text. Written as poems by frequent collaborators (and mother and daughter) Yolen and Stemple, this book looks at animals from a surprising framework. The colorful, comical illustrations bring about a lively scene and show animals with highly expressive facial features. Teachers may want to add this title as a literature connection to a study on animals or animal features. The different poetry formats may inspire students to write and share their own poems about animal features and behaviors. Resources for the information is not noted. Reviewer Rating: 4" -Children's Literature, "Introductions to 13 creatures you (mostly) wouldn't want on your leg. In a not-exactly-unexpected follow up to 2019's Eek! You Reek! Poems About Animals That Stink, Stank, Stunk, the veteran mother-daughter team works up a series of short animal poems (16, counting one on the rear cover), supplemented by quick nature notes in the backmatter, on an equally crowd-pleasing theme. As the roster includes butterflies, honeybees, elephants, and glancing mention but no picture of unweaned human infants, not all the creatures here will dial the gross-o-meter up to 11--but there are still sufficient suckers and lappers of blood, ranging from fleas and mosquitoes to vampire bats, lampreys, and leeches, to gleefully put anyone off their lunch. The creepiest critter here may well be the erebid moth: 'Oh, / tear drinker, / bird's eye / your / cup. / With your long / proboscis, / you slurp / tears / up!' And if those eyes are dry, the supplementary comment notes, 'the moth will scratch its host's eyes until there is a weepy feast.' Eww. Nobati leaves out the gore but otherwise does her part to crank up the jollity by, for instance, giving many of the comically caricatured creatures on view googly popped eyes, depicting a lamprey bringing its own ketchup to a group suck and showing a light-skinned human leg in thigh-deep water positively swathed in leeches. (This book was reviewed digitally.) Not quite as riotously entertaining as the previous outing, but it does the job."--Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
Warning: this book sucks! It bites, slurps, and sticks too. Dare to open these pages and you'll find ticks, mosquitos, stingrays, elephants, jellyfish, and the particularly sucky lamprey. Sixteen slurpy poems from Jane Yolen and Heidi E.Y. Stemple introduce a suction-filled selection of animals, and spectacularly sticky illustrations from Eugenia Nobati spotlight these stupendous suckers. Ready to find out more? Prepare to get sucked in and read on . . ., The phrase "you suck" is perfectly appropriate when applied to this hilarious poetry collection featuring animals that sip, slurp, and otherwise suck

    Fast shipping, brand new item arrived as advertised. Excellent price, too. The only thing I’d say is maybe add some stuffing in the packaging so the book cover doesn’t get squished during shipping but they’re minor creases. Thanks for a great experience
