Nicola Davies, the award-winning author of A First Book of Nature, presents a sp
ellbinding treasury of poems about the animal world, illustrated in breathtaking
detail by Petr Horacek. Polar bears playing on the ice, tigers hunting in the j
ungle, fireflies twinkling in the evening sky and nightingales singing in the he
art of the woods - there are animals everywhere. From blue whales to bumblebee b
ats and everything in between, A First Book of Animals takes you all over the pl
anet to visit all kinds of different creatures.
This book is a glorious celebrat
