Columnist Betty Woodward salutes Beastly Feasts! on Grandparents.com: "Subtitled A Mischievous Menagarie in Rhyme, Beastly Feasts! is a collection of delicious rhymes about animals, loving and not so-so-loving. There are plenty among the 40-odd poems that will appeal to grandchildren ages 7 and younger such as "The Rhinosaurus." The slightly older set will appreciate the more sophisticated poems, such as "Ode on a Fishbowl" that describes the perennial standoff between cat and goldfish. I could go on quoting these luscious little poems, but they are best read aloud to your grandchildren. They'll eat up the madcap creature illustrations by cartoonist Ronald Searle. Add the search fo the secret beast hidden within each drawing and you have the makings of a repeat read for years to come."
