A wonderful introduction to the world of animals complete with an animated DVD which brings the pictures to life with added sound effects. From a whole spread on ‘What is an Animal?’ the pages cover the colours and patterns of animals, how animals move, what animals eat, features of animal babies and much, much more. The pictures are charming and the information is simply described in additional captions making this a wonderful introduction to the subject.
