Why read it?

1 author picked Pipsqueaks, Slowpokes, and Stinkers as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Every living thing deserves to be celebrated. I’ve read a lot of children’s books about superlative animals: the fastest, the biggest, the most deadly. But where’s the love for the others? The oddballs, weirdos, eccentrics?

I love to root for an underdog, and reading about how these unusual animals survive was both informative and inspiring.
