Scranimals By: Jack Prelutysky


I did not really like this book. The poems used big words and were really in depth. I do not think that children would like to listen to poems that have so many big words. For example in a a poem consisting of 8 lines the words parrotters, cormorants and prattling are all used. Those are all words that are difficult for the target audience. The pictures in this book are kind of bland. There is not much going on in any of them. The colors are also very dull. The crab colors did not make me excited to read the book or want to to continue reading. This is not a book that I would read again. It is not a book that I would suggest for my students to read.
