Beastly Feasts: A Mischievous Menagerie in Rhyme.

I find this poetry book to be great. All the poems are about animals doing crazy, out the ordinary things. I would recommend having it in your classroom library because it contains many silly poems that children will find engaging. I believe that the male population of students would love this book as well. One of my favorite poems in the book is titled "The Unfluttery Butterfly." The reason for the butterfly being so unfluttery is because all she eats is butter, thick cream, jam, vanilla cones, and other things that are not good for her. Basically, shes too heavy to be able to fly. The pictures in this book are also very colorful and fun to look at.
