Eat Your Rocks, Croc!: Dr. Glider's Advice for Troubled Animals, Volume 1 by Jess Keating

4.0

This colorful, creative book shares animal facts from the perspective of a sugar glider doctor answering perplexed animals' questions. The facts range from the fascinating to the mildly disturbing, and will appeal most to kids who enjoy gross-out factors.

The book is very well-organized and easy to read, with an appealing layout that is easy to follow. Books with sidebars and trivia are often poorly laid out, so that you don't know what to read first, but this book handles it perfectly.

Children and adults who are interested in animal trivia will enjoy this, and the book would make a great discussion tool for parents and educators talking with children about how to distinguish fact and fiction, since the book combines fictional details related to the animal characters with scientific facts about their species.
