Older readers looking for unusual poetry collections may enjoy reading about the inner thoughts and problems faced by a variety of creatures (e.g., "Smart ASS," "Shallow OWL," "Pimp SHRIMP") in an Animals Anonymous program. The volume is designed to look like a school notebook complete with doodles and cartoons. Though the poems themselves vary in quality, the presentation will hook readers.
