The illustrations are incredibly cute, and the pun jokes are sure to leave kids giggling. I was fascinated with how the information was parsed out, first focusing on facts about the creature, before shifting into what makes them deadly. Definitely a book I would recommend to readers who love animals or versus books.

This is such an awesome nonfiction book that kids are going to love! It combines so many things that young people like - cute animals, bright illustrations, humor, and wacky facts! It's engaging, informative, and very unique. I'll absolutely be adding it to my elementary library collection and recommending it to other librarians!

Thank you NetGalley for the ebook arc. This is an extremely cute book for kids teaching them that even the cutest cuddliest animal can be deceptively dangerous. It goes thru listing the animals on an aaaaww-dorable and aaahhh-some levels. Even covering animals that the everyday person that may not have heard of or seen. The cartoony artwork is great for littles to keep them interested in the book.

Thank you for the ARC. This wasn’t just a book for kids but educational for me as well. Learned a lot of facts I never knew about these animals. The illustrations were a bit over the top. I would prefer more realistic but overall it was a cute book.

This is one pun-ny book. While these creatures are cute, they are mostly pretty small and eat insects and other prey. Don't expect them to kill you dead or keep you up at night worrying about how they are going to get you. The illustrations are great and really play on the cuteness factors and contrast this with their darker predator mode. Photos at the back of the book give readers some insight on what the creatures might look like in the wild.

So interesting and educational. It's not just for the kiddos but I'm sure the parents will learn a thing or too about these animals. Love the illustrations too!
