Get the scoop on wombats! You might know wombats have square poop, but did you know they have strong cartilage butts? Or there are three types? Or that they have backward facing pouches (the only marsupial that does)? You will learn that and more in Cushman’s book. Humorous text and equally funny illustrations make this not just education, but fun too. ~ Reviewed by Jeanette

Information about the fascinating adaptations of the animals is presented. Some are funny (Marine iguana), some are spooky (yes you, Mexican lizard mole), some dangerous (wombat bum power!) and some stinky (looking at you, opossum). Jokes, puns, and facts mix that will teach you about animals you know (peacocks, flamingos), some somewhat new (wombat, lyrebirds) and some never heard of before (sea angel). ~ Reviewed by Jeanette

Did you ever wonder how dinosaurs went extinct? Well in How Dinosaurs Went Extinct: A Safety Guide you will learn all the horrible things they did (or the good things they did not do) that made them go kaput! Bad things like picking their nose and eating the boogie! Like never changing their underwear! Wait? You mean that is not what happened? Well, the dad in this story seems like a smart guy and that is what he said happened! Of course, these silly things may or may not have happened, but the goofy ideas do have a special result of convincing the child of the story what proper manners, etiquette and being a good person (or dinosaur) is all about. Adorable illustrations that are colorful and help keep the silliness flowing add to the fun and games. ~ Reviewed by Jeanette

The mixture of classical poems and modern sensibilities poems are a rhyming good time. Some are funny and some serious. The mixture helps mix things up, so you are not rereading the same poem over. The artwork by Aileen Bennett is delightful and is a combination of its own character and perfectly supports the poetry. The mixture of minimalist images of black and white, bold colors, and the use of space brings it all together. ~ Reviewed by Jeanette

This book is based on true events and how they lead to the first Earth Day. One horrific event made a young girl, who loved nature and the beach, want to act and help with cleaning up the mess an oil spill caused. And she, the adults, and finally the country found a way to do that and help the world as well. Lechuga created illustrations that were rich, and bold where colors and details pop off the page. ~ Reviewed by Jeanette

My great-aunt gave me an older edition of this book when I was a kid, and I still feel the urge to flip through it from time to time. Possibly the best explanation of human technologies that exists for late elementary to middle schoolers. Not a light read, but worth its hefty weight in gold to any curious minds with the patience to sit & dig in. ~ Reviewed by David Gray-Smith
