I like this one but it's too long for kiddo's current attention span, so we'll have to come back to it later.

Cute picture book. Full of animals leaping, each triggering the next one to leap as well. I imagine kids will enjoy shouting "leap" as the pages turn. and they get a humorous glimpse at how animals in nature affect each other.  some of the vocabulary seems a bit advanced for kids,  so probably best read by adults to children instead of solo reading.

An exciting and well-illustrated book about the life of a flea amongst flowers and the animals.

This book is full of lovely poetry. I love the use of the different animals that leap everywhere! The illustrations are engaging and provide lots of talking points. I would enjoy reading this to my son and will be adding the book to my shopping list.

This children's book is about animals that leap and jump. Complete with fun rhyme schemes and colorful pictures throughout makes for a whimsical read.

I loved this book! I'd love to find out if this is a specific form of verse or more free verse. It's certainly irregular. The illustrations are amazing (I love the fish!) and I love how the story drags the reader from page to page as the text extends beyond each two-page spread.
