Animal Quackers: Dog-Eared Doggeral!

The poems by Dick Maltzman in Animal Quackers are about amoeba, ants, dinosaurs, fish, birds, turtles, bunnies, giraffes, elephants, a vegetarian lion, and just about everything in between. Laugh if you want—the author certainly wants you to— that is the purpose of this collection. Whimsically illustrated by Jean Ann Smith; this charming poetry is designed to entertain a lot and teach a little.

Encounter an amoeba named Fred who first decided to keep his extra cells when they came around, a lion named Darian who decides he doesn’t like meat, Tommy the Turtle who’s on a house-hunting expedition, an army of very smart ants, and a very inventive little bunny named George.

Animal Quackers is for kids of all ages. You’ll even meet T-Rex and a sabertooth tiger, and maybe you’ll even like them!
