Animal Soup


Animal Soup. Todd H. Doodler. 2010. May 2010. Random House. 14 pages.

Animal Soup is "a mixed-up animal flap book" that is super-fun! I really liked this one. And I think you may like it too. I thought it was cute. I thought it was clever. I thought it worked well. It may even inspired readers to create some mix-ups of their own. (You never know!)

What would I be
if I had wings to fly...
...but walked very slowly
instead?

Bird + Turtle = Birdle
and

What would I be
if I were pink from head to toe...
...and swung by my tail from a tree?

Flamingo + Monkey = Flamonkey

I enjoyed The Zoo I Drew last year. So I was pleased to see the release of Animal Soup.
