Take a big, bad and a little bit scary safari and meet the wonderful creatures in this book of poems. This is a collection of poems from celebrated poets that is sure to please the beginning poetry reader and adults alike. The book contains not your ordinary troupe of animals, but the slippery, slimy eel, the sparrow hawk with wings like pistols and the venomous, vile, viper.
