Reviews

[Sarah Allred · Rating 1 out of 5]

This book was about the world's weirdest critters(hint the name). It was about Ripley's travels all over the world and animals he saw on the way. It had animals with 2 heads, animals with long tongues who could lick their ears. It also had animals who could camouflage themselves.

In this book World's Weirdest Critters there are a lot of silly facts about animals living in the wild. For example there is one fact where it says that if a airplane gets too close to a eagles nest it will literally attack the airplane and maybe get killed.
