Rules of the Wild: An Unruly Book of Manners
Playing in the dirt, staying up all night, and leaving clothes strewn across the floor are not a problem if you're a wild animal. Dunking food, burping, and splashing-no problem either. Human kids, who are expected to follow rules, rules, rules, will squeal with delight as the pages reveal wild animals getting away with all kinds of outlandish behavior and will relish "...more

I almost gave this book a 3 because the writing has some room for improvement. The meter is awkward (I recommend a scan through by yourself before reading aloud) and the language is a bit stilted. Still, I have to say hats off for a fun theme, darling details, and marvelous illustrations. I loved the facts-at-a-glance end pages. That was the last detail that helped swing me over to include the book on my list.

Cracked Elise up. The idea is that if your parents were camels, you'd be allowed to spit at each other, if they were bats, you could stay up all night, etc. Actually led to some good talking about why we have the rules we have.
This book is pure comedy and entertainment, children would find this book hilarious. I loved this book and I think it would serve as a great read aloud.
Funny book for younger storytime kids. Rhyming. Talks about all the cool stuff you could do if you were an animal that's not a human.
Cute rhyming book.
Summary:
You would have a different set of rules if you lived with an animal family. For example, you could stay up all night if you lived with a bat family!
Has a neat graph at the end graphing what animals would and would not allow certain rules. Good book to reinforce or review rules of school/class/library!
