Inside this bright and bold book, you'll find answers to questions like 'How slow's a sloth?' (very slooww, the three-toed sloth hangs around in trees and hardly moves); 'Why do elephants have big ears?' (to keep cool is one reason); and 'Do sharks brush their teeth?' (they have little fish helpers!). Each spread presents a new opportunity for children to relate the behaviour and characteristics of exotic animals to their own familiar world. Page-by-page, super smart yet endearing animal characters explain the facts in a fun and accessible way, sure to keep kids engaged.
