Bristling with sly humor and just a hint of danger, this irresistible collection of poems pays homage to everyone's favorite members of the animal kingdom-the bullies! Readers will squirm with delight as snakes, alligators, panthers, vultures, sharks, and more slither, stalk, and swoop their way through the pages. Award-winning artist Wade Zahares captures this lyrical bestiary of ne'er do-wells-from such celebrated poets as Ogden Nash, Eve Merriam, and Dick-King Smith-in stunning full-color illustrations. Ferociously fun and ideal for reading aloud, Big, Bad, and a Little Bit Scary is sure to be treasured by animal lovers and poetry lovers alike.
