Annette Chaudet, author of THE NOSE BOOK, turns her talent for nonsense verse to the animals of Africa for a humorous look at the animals who roam that continent. And they're all here-the lion, cheetah, hyena, elephant, gorilla, wildebeest, zebra, crocodile, impala and more- fifteen familiar denizens of the jungles and savanahs offer their particular views of their lives in the wild. The hippo gives you a piece of her mind should you choose to call her fat, the crocodile rationalizes his role as predator, the zebra explains that no two of them are alike (but they're all well dressed ), and the impala considers beauty a burden while the lion is simply waiting for the lioness to deliver his dinner. The author's humor is sure to delight both children and adults and the full page, brightly colored illustrations only add to the mystique of the featured creatures.
