Pros & Cons
Pros
Both books are eric carle's trademark artwork paired with international poetry, rhymes, and sayings from famous and not so famous writers. My grandkids love the book. Eric carle is a master!

A delightful way to introduce your children to poetry. Giraffe poem speaks to my son who looooves giraffes. While some of the poems are certainly at their language level, many are more advanced.

Shipping
This was exactly what i was hoping for and shipped quickly!
The book arrived quickly and in good shape.
Competitiveness
This is a similar idea to lois ehlert's lots of spots, with both the artwork and the poetry being a step up from ms ehlert's book.
