Summary
Anna Wright’s stunning introduction to non-fiction and the natural world is enlivened by her gorgeously sophisticated and fun art style which mixes pen and ink, watercolour and fabric collage. Find out what ‘pronking’ is and how one jellyfish can become two in the humourous descriptions. Both educational and beautiful Anna’s unique picture book shows the character of these animals beyond their familiar forms.

Unique collection of natural science facts. A dozen enchanting images.

A worthwhile purchase, and children interested in animals and how they move will be drawn in.

A gorgeous nonfiction picture book.
