Book Descriptions
for Kangaroo and Cricket by Lorianne Siomades
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
“Kangaroo and cricket both can jump. / Camel and turtle... both have a hump.” Simple rhyming phrases accompanied by stylized watercolor paintings point out shared characterisitics of otherwise unrelated animals: whale and walrus, badger and beetle, leopard and lizard, fish and hippo, etc. Clear picture clues give children plenty of opportunity to guess what each pair has in common. (Ages 2-5)
