The third in a glorious sticker book series created for the
National Trust, this book is packed with facts about weird and
wonderful sea creatures and their homes. With four pages of
wildlife stickers, you can stick porpoises in the harbour, fill the
rock pools with sea urchins, add an octopus into the underwater
cave, and much, much more. From basking sharks swimming in the deep
sea to crabs scuttling across the sandy shore, this is an excellent
introduction to all types of sea creatures for the very young.
In this beautiful search-and-find book, readers are invited to find
a variety of endangered animals within their habitats. Densely
detailed landscapes of a rainforest, coral reef, mountains and
skies are harbouring within them numbats, and snow leopards and
mountain gorillas. Isabella Bunnell's glorious watercolours makes
the job of scouring the images even more fun. At the back of the
book a glossary lends an additional educational element, describing
each species in detail and explaining why they are endangered. In
these urgent times, awareness of the rich bio-diversity of our
planet has never been more vital. This is a great way of getting
children as young as three engaging with environmental issues.
