Recenzii
In
entertaining,
witty
fashion,
the
author-illustrator
duo
of
Some
Bugs
(2014)
here
highlight
a
festive
array of
pets
great
and
small.
Set
at
a
pet
show
in
the
park,
various
events
from
agility
trials
with
a
snake
(“Some pets
slither”)
and
a
rabbit
(“Some
pets
bound”),
to
a
pig
race
(“Some
pets
squeal”),
to
a
costume party—featuring
a
dragon-suited
dog
and
punk-rock
Chihuahuas
among
others—give
different
pets
a chance
to
shine.
Eventually,
there’s
a
celebratory
animal
parade,
culminating
with
all
the
pets
and
their diverse,
youthful
owners
gathered
for
an
award
ceremony.
Finally,
after an
exciting
day,
things
quiet
down with
an
affectionate
concluding
scenario
and
“Some
pets
can
be
.
.
.
someone’s
best
friend!”
The
short, descriptive
text
with
refrain
is
enlivened
with
rhyming
elements
and
interspersed
sound
effects.Meanwhile,
the
vibrant,
collagelike
mixed-media
artwork
incorporates
cartoonish
touches,
amusing
seek
and- find
details,
and
varying
perspectives
as
animals
interact
with
one
another
and
their
caretakers
in
a variety
of
playful
scenarios,
from
chaotic
to
sweet.
A
closing
author’s
note
briefly
touches
on
the responsibilities
of
pet
ownership.
Peppy,
fun,
and
perfect
for
reading
aloud. —

This bright and bouncy story in verse is about an array of pets and what they do. “Some pets slither. Some pets bound. Some pets scurry round and round.” Verbs describe how pets move, how they make sounds, how they eat, and how they show affection to their owners. The story ends with a statement about what all pets have in common. Humorous illustrations flesh out the simple text with mixed-media art that includes lots of cut-paper collage and what appear to be googly eyes. The bright, colorful illustrations are at their best when showing animals dressed for a costume party. Readers will have many observations about the animals in this story, as well as comments about their own pets or other animals they have known. Encourage young readers to find a word to describe how their pets move, make sounds, eat, or show affection, and, if appropriate, discuss the difference between nouns and verbs. VERDICT This fun, lively book will entertain kids at storytime, but it is also a simple way to begin discussing parts of speech. Recommended for all collections.
Using the setting of a pet show (a pretty raucous one), DiTerlizzi and Wenzel highlight the traits that make pets so great in this companion to 2014’sSome Bugs. “Some pets slither./ Some pets bound./ Some pets scurry round and round,” writes DiTerlizzi as Wenzel’s vivid mixed-media artwork shows a striped snake navigating an obstacle course, a rabbit bounding over hurdles, and a hamster giving it all he’s got on a wheel. Bouncy verse, playful illustrated details, and abundant affection between animals and humans add up to an exuberant reminder of the joy that having a pet can bring. Ages 4–8.
