Scholastic Reader Level 3: Ugly Animals

They've got faces so ugly only a mother could love them!

The New York Times started a phenomenon: ugly is the new black. After publishing an articled entitled, "A Masterpiece of Nature? Yuck!", that chronicled several of the world's ugliest animals (Sphynx cat, star-nosed mole, proboscis monkey, etc.) they were bombarded by loyal readers who sent in their own pictures of ugly animals. Each one trying to out ugly the last.
