I Like Weird Animals! series. A spider that "looks like BIRD POOP!" (Hair-Shooting) and a beetle that eats "nothing but POOP!" (Bomb-Factory) are two of the unusual animals that readers will marvel over in these books. The texts are marginally informative; more engaging are the vivid photographs depicting the strange creatures. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind., The Horn Book Guide Spring 2010
