Susan Solie Patterson has dreamed of writing and art directing a children's book since she received her Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She wrote the New York Times bestselling Big Words for Little Geniuses and Cuddly Critters for Little Geniuses with her husband, James Patterson.
James Patterson has had more New York Times bestsellers than any other writer, ever, according to Guinness World Records. Since his first novel won the Edgar Award in 1977 James Patterson's books have sold more than 375 million copies. He is the author of the Alex Cross novels, the most popular detective series of the past twenty-five years, including Kiss the Girls and Along Came a Spider. He writes full-time and lives in Florida with his family.
"Continuing the vocabulary-building they began in Big Words for
Little Geniuses (2017), the Pattersons focus here on creatures with
names that beg to be sounded out and relished--from the
"silly-looking aye-aye" to the "adorable" dumbo octopus, axolotl,
and jerboa. Pan supplies stylized portraits in illustrations that
are all bright colors and blobby shapes, as cheery as Matisse paper
collages. ...This parade will give the next generation of Jane
Goodalls and Roger Tory Petersons a leg up on some of the wild
kingdom's more colorful (and sonorously named) residents."--Kirkus
