From Egglace to Mouseball: Poems by Animal Fathers - Paperback

by Elizabeth Bayer Gillingham (Author), Elizabeth Bayer Gillingham (Illustrator)

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.
