Roald Dahl's inimitable style and humor shine in this collection of
poems about mischievous and mysterious animals. From Stingaling the
scorpion to Crocky-Wock the crocodile, Dahl's animals are nothing short
of ridiculous. A clever pig with an unmentionable plan to save his own
bacon and an anteater with an unusually large appetite are among the
characters created by Dahl in these timeless rhymes. This new, larger
edition is perfect for reading aloud and makes Quentin Blake's
celebrated illustrations even more enjoyable.
"Will elicit a loud 'Yuck.' In other words, children will love them." ( Children's Book Review Service )

About the Author
Roald
Dahl (1916-1990) was born in Wales of Norwegian parents. He spent his
childhood in England and, at age eighteen, went to work for the Shell
Oil Company in Africa. When World War II broke out, he joined the Royal
Air Force and became a fighter pilot. At the age of twenty-six he moved
to Washington, D.C., and it was there he began to write. His first short
story, which recounted his adventures in the war, was bought by The
Saturday Evening Post, and so began a long and illustrious career.
After
establishing himself as a writer for adults, Roald Dahl began writing
children’s stories in 1960 while living in England with his family. His
first stories were written as entertainment for his own children, to
whom many of his books are dedicated.
Roald Dahl is now considered
one of the most beloved storytellers of our time. Although he passed
away in 1990, his popularity continues to increase as his fantastic
novels, including James and the Giant Peach, Matilda, The BFG, and
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, delight an ever-growing legion of
fans.
