Safe, Warm, and Snug

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jose Aruego & Ariane Dewey. A rhyming text describes how eleven animals protect their young from predatory and environmental threats to keep them "safe, warm, and snug." Some tongue-tying word sequences and occasionally awkward meter mean the otherwise lively verse doesn't always read fluently, but the bold, vibrant illustrations are eye-catching. A section at the back elaborates on the animals' protective tactics.
