Animalario

Twenty-four ingenious and imaginative couplets introduce children to animals as varied as a bear, a crocodile, an elephant, a lion, and a raccoon in this whimsical book. At first glance, the animals featured don’t appear to be particularly they have hair, or feathers, or scales, spots, whiskers, feet, and fins. But as children play the nine observation games, they notice that some animals are behaving rather strangely, others change colors, and still others play hide-and-seek. A memory game comprised of 48 cards is included, as are 12 double-sided cards that kids can use to create their own fantastical animals.
