Product Description
Product Description
Sheep that steal. A lyin' lion. Slugs with deep, dark secrets. This second book of humorous verse for children from Tiffany Stone is full of animals being B-A-A-D. Remember those sheep? They say they'll "give you nightmares, make you weep." But you're more likely to giggle at their antics and the crazy capers of the other critters in this book instead. Stone's mischivievous poems paired with Christina Leist's cheeky ink illustrations guarantee readers are in for a very GOOD time indeed!
About the Author
Tiffany Stone is a children's poet and vegetarian who loves all animals, even the really baad ones. Her first book, Floyd the Flamingo and his flock of friends, also published by Tradewind Books, received critical acclaim: " Good books of humorous poetry for young children are rare, but Floyd the Flamingo by Tiffany Stone can be counted among this exclusive company ...Stone has a delightful sense of the ridiculous..." (Winnipeg Free Press).
Christina Leist was raised with crazy chickens, rowdy rabbits, geeky goats, daring dogs and a too-playful pony in the green hills outside of Frankfurt, Germany. Christina studied graphic design at the school in Wiesbaden, Germany, and worked as an art director in Frankfurt. She currently juggles her time among illustrating children's books, writing, designing, hanging with her horse, and travelling between Germany and Vancouver, Canada.

Great Funny Poetry Book., Oct 22 2011
By Carla VanKoughnett - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Baad Animals (Paperback)
In receiving the book I thought it might have more of a single story line but after I looked through it I found that it was full of different little poems that most of were appropriate for using at my preschool. It's easy to read, and has lots of illustrations to catch a readers interest. I love it, and I find it to be a great tool for passing time during my circle time activities if things have gone too quickly. It nice to be able to pick up this book, and share it with the children, especially since they really seem to enjoy it. I wouldn't personally read all the poems in it to the children as I like to pick and choose according to their development, but overall it's fun, silly, and kept the children laughing. It also provided a great tool for teaching the children about right and wrong.
