Publisher's Synopsis
Writing this book reignited in me a childlike thrill of discovery. What started out as a book of silly limericks led me into the weird world of the creatures about which I was writing. Consequently I decided to follow each limerick with a section called "What's the Scoop?" In it you'll find some unusual facts that many books don't cover about that animal. The last part of the book contains several activities called "What Did You Scoop Up?" It has exercises to help kids remember what they read. If you laugh half as much while reading this book as I did while writing it, you better buckle up.
