3.5 stars, but rounding down for GR. I came across this at Browsers Bookstore when looking for a children's book for a baby shower, and considered it for that purpose (mom to be is a marine biologist) but 1) I really liked the illustrations too and 2) while the prose can be read to children, it definitely feels more... I dunno. Different audience (especially if you read the dustjacket flap). "For adults" though I do think younger readers could get it.

The pen and ink illustrations are far stronger to me than the poetry- didn't really have any strong feelings about most of the poems, but the illustrations are wonderful (I particularly like the pangolin with the pitcher plants even though Sarracenia are native to North America, not Asia). A lovely addition to our shelves.… (plus d'informations)

Can't figure out how to rate this one. Definitely enjoyed the book and its form—but can't figure out whether it was my own (pretty baseless) bias against overt rhyme that cast an unfair judgment upon it or what.
