This was a good collection of extremely short stories. Each story was only a page long and was making an important point. I did like the humour they contained. I just wish the stories were so much longer as you could tell they were well developed and written, so the author is definitely capable. I am unsure of what age group this book would suit best as they are really too short for most adults to want to read. And as some of them contain swear words, it's not suitable for under 18's. I did enjoy reading it. But not enough to give ot the higher star ratings.
Many thanks to the author for creating these interesting and thought-provoking statements.

If you've already read any of my other recent book reviews, you'll already know that I start 'em all off by saying that each book starts off with the full 5 stars and that I'm always hopeful that they will all still be firmly in place by the time I finish reading. You'll also know that I'm not shy about knocking off a star if I feel it's necessary, particular for copyright or trademark infringement but that I always give a reason for knocking each star off.

Let's get going:

Ooh! I love the zebra image on the first page! It makes a refreshing change not to be met with a page full of text, so top marks so far!

There's the first star gone after the use of a brand name... I hope that I can replace it if there's that magic sentence at the end of the book saying that it's been used with permission, but of all the books I've read, that's only happened once, so I'm not holding my breath unfortunately.

Two totally unnecessary swears takes the book down to 3 stars.

I haven't got a clue what age this author is writing for... it's written as too immature for adults but the swearing and words are too advanced for children! Each of the animals have the same voice and personality too... this really hasn't been thought out well at all, so I'm knocking off another star at 46%. I'm mightily relieved that it's only 76 pages long but I'm wondering if the final star will stay in place for the last 54%?

Oh boy, now it's glorifying making elephants drunk so the final star is coming off and I'm officially giving up. This book had so much potential but the author just didn't think it through enough.

I quite liked this a lot. I enjoyed that each chapter was based on a different animal and I loved how the author wrote in the irony that was specific to that animal. From a adult perspective it was humorous at times, but often there was the feeling of sadness that was layered in with the comedic writing..

It personifies these animals that us humans often choose to ignore (as a defense mechanism in my opinion) because it makes it easier to destroy the animals lives (and many times the species longevity) when we can act like they aren't a real organism.

It's a easy read, but also a deeper meaning read at the same time. I think people of all ages would benefit from reading this book because it summarizes how human beings are ruining our animal kingdom.
