Brief Summary/Book Usage: The book described different animals being compared to one another based on size, speed, how hungry they were, how slimy they were, and how sleepy they were. The book used many adjectives that helped describe the animals better. I would used this book in my future classroom when discussing habits of different animals or when comparing animals to one another. Also, if doing a lesson over adjectives, this book would be good to point out the use of adjectives while comparing the animals.
