Animagicals: On the Go by Svjetlan Junakovic and Carol Diggory Shields

Animagicals: On the Go by Svjetlan Junakovic and Carol Diggory Shields is a fold out book with twelve riddle rhymes. Published in 1999, Junakovic drew the remarkable illustrations and Shields wrote the poetry. This slim book measures 11 1/2" x 5 1/2".

On the left side of the page is the poem and the part of the drawing. On the right side is a drawing of a vehicle. You read the poem and open the flap to see which animal or insect is being described. Children will have fun guessing which animal will appear.

Link to our NICU book registry if you'd like to donate books to babies in the newborn intensive care unit so their parents can read to them while they grow. You can also donate gently used books to our project by sending them to me or to Angie. Email me for a mailing address. We can use both English and Spanish books. If you have a graduate of the NICU, or if you have a baby whose life you would like to honor by donating books to this project, let me know, and I can make a book plate with their name for the books you donate.

Read to a child today even if that child is you.
