Descripción editorial
From the bestselling duo behind Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs comes the long-awaited “funny follow-up” (School Library Journal) to Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing, which shows us a hilarious new group of animals that shouldn’t, ever-ever-ever, dress like humans.
Everyone knows that snakes and billy goats and walruses should definitely not wear clothing, but there are actually lots more animals that should definitely not wear clothing…
Because a frog might jump out of it,
Because a crab might tear it up,
And because a penguin is already formally dressed!
Judi and Ron Barrett, the team behind the Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs series, remind us once again why animals are better off just the way they are.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This husband-and-wife team follow up their classic picture book Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing (1970) and its sequel, Animals Should Definitely Not Act like People (1980), with a look at more animals dressed hilariously in human attire. But, as with the other titles, looking silly isn't the reason why a horse, frog, bear, spider, and others ought not to get dressed. Instead, it's "because a crab would tear it up" (the crab is pictured ripping apart its plaid shirt with its claws) and "because an elk would have too many choices." The elk, rendered in Barrett's distinctive pen-and-ink art, wears anxiety on its face while peering up at the many hats perched on its antlers. A skunk really shouldn't wear a plaid skirt because it "could make it stinky," while a turtle "has a turtleneck of its own." The formula a finger-wagging narrator up against ludicrous circumstances is familiar but no less delightful in this companion title. Ages 4 8.
