Twosomes: Love Poems from the Animal Kingdom by Marilyn Singer

How do animals love? Read on and you'll find out.

What I thought: Too cute! Marilyn Singer may just be one of my favorite children's poets. The poems are simple--couplets really--and the illustrations are great. They are colorful and make good use of white space. My favorite poems are chameleons, elephants, and geese. My favorite illustrations are the cover, cats, and sharks.
