An Anthology of Intriguing Animals

An Anthology of Intriguing Animals is a really beautiful book. Each page has a gilded edge and is designed with beautiful illustrations, a close-up image of the animal and an easy-to-read introduction to the animal.

Children who love animals will adore this book.  My children do – and I love it too because it is so visually appealing.

More than 100 animals have been included and the images are so detailed you can see individual hairs and scales on the animals.

Children will be able to keep their place easily in the book with the attached ribbon bookmark.

Some of the intriguing animals included are:

  • Tiger
  • Raccoon
  • Quokka
  • Owl
  • Milk Snake
  • Giraffe
  • Butterfly
  • Baleen Whale
