This colourful picture book helps children build their vocabulary and literacy skills as they learn about animals around the world

This fun and busy picture book helps children build up a vocabulary of more than 1000 words about the lives of animals around the world.

Written by award-winning science teacher Jules Pottle, it introduces key concepts about wildlife and the natural world, while broadening children's vocabulary and strengthening their early reading skills. Every picture-packed page is full of fascinating topics, such as how animals protect themselves, their daily routines, and how species have adapted to different environments.

1000 Animal Words clearly labels each picture, which encourages picture-and-word association and helps early reading. Each topic features questions that ask children to find things on the page or that stimulate thinking, talking, and reading comprehension skills. The words include lots of useful nouns, plus some interesting adjectives and common verbs related to wildlife around the world.

This fun and educational picture word book is a must-have first reference title for parents and guardians who are keen to develop their child's language and literacy skills, and nurture a love of animals and the environment.
