Editorial : From School Library Journal Grade 2–4—Gorgeous mixed-media illustrations complement dozens of inventive collective nouns, among them a "bolt of hippogriffs," a "splash of mermaids," and a "dazzlement of Quetzalcoatls" as well as the eponymous "dignity of dragons."

I had ordered it for my 3 year old who loves Pete the Cat and I just have to say this book is AWESOME. Some are quite pretty and mystical, but they don't always strike me as something that would appeal to children (but, since I have no children to test this on, that's just me guessing). At first I didn't know if it would be a great book, mainly since this was an assignment for my English class, but the more I read the more I wanted to kee
