Meet the National Animals is a playful and humorous look at the
animals all around the world who represent their country. Why do
they represent the particular country and what is so special or
symbolic about them? Featuring over 35 amazing animals, from the
mystical Scottish Unicorn to China's much-loved Giant Panda and the
wonderful, but extinct, Dodo from Mauritius. The witty text brings
each animal to life and celebrates their quirks and
characteristics. Includes a playful, charming narrative along the
bottom of each spread, which sees Brown Bear gradually bringing all
the animals together as they travel the world, celebrating each
country as they go. Filled with fascinating facts about each animal
and country, the text also touches gently on conservation issues
related to each animal and their habitat. The illustrations inject
warmth and humour into the narrative, making the animals the stars
of their respective countries!

The Crocodile Who Didn't Like Water is a funny, unique and
uplifting story about family, acceptance and unconditional love,
from award-winning creator Gemma Merino. Everybody knows that
crocodiles love water, but this little crocodile is different. He
doesn't like water at all. In fact, he prefers climbing trees! But
it can be lonely when you're the odd one out, so the little
crocodile tries his best to change. But being wet isn't for
everyone - and a shiver soon becomes a cold and the cold becomes a
sneeze, a surprisingly HOT sneeze... Could it be that this little
crocodile isn't a crocodile at all? He might just be a DRAGON!
Stomp! This photo-guessing game challenges pre-readers to guess
whose feet are in each image. The swift, dainty, and webbed answers
may be surprising!
