15.9 - In Like a Lion, Out Like a Lamb

15.9 -- In Like a Lion, Out Like a Lamb
Read a book with the name of an animal in the title or a picture of an animal on the cover. Animals must be real. Dogs, cats, insects, horses, fish, birds, or reptiles will work. Mythical animals such as dragons, unicorns, werewolves, and vampires will not. Required: If using the cover option, you must include the cover or a link to the book in your post.

[Kristina Simon]

These work:
Little Bee
Dragonfly in Amber
Pigs in Heaven
The Tequila Worm

[Kristina Simon]

These will NOT work:
The Bronze Horseman

[Isabell]

How prominent does the animal have to be on the cover? I was thinking of , which as a hawk on the cover although the person is more prominent.

That works. The animal doesn't need to be especially prominent.

[Isabell]

Thanks.

[Erin (NY)]

Do insects work? "bee" or "dragonfly"? (Little Bee or Dragonfly in Amber)
Edited: never mind! I just realized they are permitted in the task description

[Courtney]

Would this work?

Yes it will.

[Juli]

I think I'll read Pigs in Heaven for this task.

I really enjoyed that one.

[Kristen]

Is the The Bronze Horseman by Paullina Simons ok?

[Kristina Simon]

No, sorry, additions to the animal name that make it not an animal anymore won't work.

[Carrie]

Would a "dead" bird, or silhouette of one work?

Here is the cover:

The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie

Thanks so much!

Yes, that works.

[Carrie]

Wonderful. I happen to find a somewhat local bookclub where I live and they are reading this book for an upcoming meeting. I had been hoping to stick this into the Reading Challenge too. Thank you!

[JennRenee]

Would this work?

Jenn Renee wrote: "Would this work?"

I can clearly see that it's a wolf. So, yes, it will work.

[RedSycamore]

What about a stylized animal like or ? (Not Batman, but the little bat in the yellow part of the cover. It's very small in this picture)

Either of those would work.

[Kelly]

Birds work.

[Joanna]

Thanks

Dinosaurs work.

[Amanda]

Hi I have two ideas for this.

Would



or



work? In the bottom right corner of Shiver there is an outline of a wolf and Tithe has a butterfly.

Either one of these would work.

[Kim]

How about this one...it's a juvenile book with 200 pages?

[Kristina Simon]

Yes, that works.

[Fran]

I would like to use

Although there is "unicorn" in the title, the story is actually about a woman who runs an animal reserve. On the cover it looks like there are bison/some kind of cattle. Just wanted to make sure the animals could be made out well enough. Thanks!

Yeah, unicorn won't work. But that does look vaguely like a buffalo or bison on the cover. I'll take it.

[Fran]

Thanks Kristi. :)

[Judithe]

I'm wondering if one of these would work? The stories are about shifters, however, the animal in the pic on front is a depiction of a real animal.
(lion) (leopard)

Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you, Judithe. I've been out on the boat all weekend.

Either one of these will work. As long as the picture is of a real animal, it's OK if the stories are about not-so-real animals ;o). Enjoy!

[Judithe]

No problem, and hope you had a wonderful time on the boat!

I was hoping to use It's Raining Pigs & Noodles. Does it count?

[Kristina Simon]

The word "Pigs" in the title fits the task, the book is over 100 pages, and poetry is fine. So, yes, that book will work. I read the first couple of poems on Google Books. Very cute ;o)!

[Lahni]

Thanks.
