“In seven illustrated stories . . . this Caldecott Honor artist introduces an array of lively anthropomorphized animals in amusing predicaments.”–Publishers Weekly

Rats can’t dance, right?

Wrong. Here are seven silly stories about some very unusual creatures. Meet a sheep who can’t read (but thinks he can), an owl who outwits a brontosaurus, and a goose who thinks her wolf neighbors are canaries.

“Those just beginning to read chapter books should find that this is just the thing to tickle their funnybones.”—School Library Journal
