From Egglace to Mouseball: Poems by Animal Fathers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692954232)

What's it like to be an animal dad?

Well... It can be unpredictable, freezing, hungry, tiring, lazy, daring, weird, lonely, and definitely gross.

With a darkly comic style and irreverent wordplay similar to Shel Silverstein, Roald Dahl, and Edward Gorey, nine dads of different species tell-all, from the gruesome to the gleeful. Funny (yet educational) full-color illustrations throughout complement their zany tales. You'll never look at animals-- or fathers-- the same

Includes resources and a glossary to encourage further learning. Targeted to children but also a perfect gift for dads.
