\"\"<\/a>Butt or Face?<\/p>\n

Revenge of the Butts<\/p>\n

Can You Tell Which End You’re Looking At?<\/em><\/p>\n

by Kari Lavelle<\/p>\n

Sourcebooks eXplore, 2024. 48 pages.
\nReview written April 19, 2024, from a library book.
\nStarred Review<\/p>\n

They’re back! The wildly popular kid-pleaser Butt or Face?<\/a><\/em> has a sequel!<\/p>\n

Kari Lavelle didn’t change the winning format. You’ve got close-up photographs of an unusual creature’s front end or back end. And the question is posed:<\/p>\n

Is it a BUTT or a FACE?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Turn the page for the reveal, where you see the full animal, including how the part you’ve already seen fits into the whole. Pertinent facts are displayed about the animal and how it’s particular butt or face helps it live its life (if this is known).<\/p>\n

The animals featured in this book include such goodies as a warty frogfish, a dugong, an axolotl, and an alien butt spider.<\/p>\n

I like the Author’s Note at the back that tells us the author got the idea when she read about farmers in Botswana painting eyes on the behinds of cattle to scare away lions.<\/p>\n

These books are a fantastic way for your child to pick up trivia about wild animals and have giggling fun while they’re doing it. Who could ask for anything more?<\/p>\n
