How do you tell the difference between a tortoise and a turtle, or a monkey and an ape? A dolphin and a porpoise, a leopard and a tiger, and 3 other sets of commonly confused animals? 

I love the book layout. An illustration with their names, another 2-page spread of what they have in common and what is different. Simple, not a lot of descriptive text, and . . . It rhymes! So very cute.
