SLJ Review of Whose Poo? Set Two
A visual guessing game helps introduce facts about animal excrement. Each book highlights four examples of animal poo. A two-page spread offers a large photo of the animal’s deposits along with captions pointing out qualities, like the grass and seeds shown in the rhinoceros ex-ample.
Readers are asked to identify the creature, choosing from three inset photos. A page turn reveals the answer, along with images of the animal responsible for the poo, and a bit more information about how it gets produced.
Word balloons for the animals add some humor, and the overall tone is lighthearted. At the same time, the scientific data is relevant, as readers learn how feces’ shapes, sizes, and texture relate to the animals’ lives.
VERDICT: A fun choice for kids who enjoy exploring the grosser side of animal science.
