Scaly, furry and feathered creatures speak for themselves in Turtle in July (Macmillan; $13.95). Marilyn Singer's liberated verses suggest bodily rhythms (Deer Mouse: "get enough to last/ get enough to store/ get more"; Beavers: "You guard/ I pack/ I dig/ You stack"; Dragonfly: "Look/ skim/ there/ snap/ eat/ Repeat"). Meanwhile, Jerry Pinkney's watercolors furnish the shades and tints of four seasons and 15 highly articulate animals...

Over the past seven years, the yearly production of farm-raised deer has increased sixfold, to 30,000 lbs. Game ranchers sell another 100,000 lbs. of wild venison. Farm venison, however, appeals to more people because it tastes milder than wild deer.
