Get ready for an expedition into the wondrous woodlands. Discover
the world's tallest trees, find out which bears live in the woods
and learn all about cloud forests. Wrap up warm and dive into this
exciting book bursting with fun facts, quizzes, word searches, and
mazes.
Aimed at 3 to 5 year olds, this title introduces the alphabet and basic numbers and counting through the theme of African wildlife and nature.
Fully illustrated throughout, it is a 'first' book of the alphabet and as such features several single words to represent each letter from A to Z, and wildlife themes to introduce counting. Colourful scenes of the African bushveld, the coast, night-time and river environment reinforce words encountered earlier in the title and help young children to "test" their knowledge while learning about the environment.
Simple activities follow in which children can identify the animals they have seen, match animals to their shapes, identify animal hides, and learn comparisons.
