Produktbeschreibung
This book consists of thirty large full-colour illustrations of imaginary creatures with peculiar habits and names that are entertainingly difficult to pronounce. You probably haven't heard of a Plookoplackmipeep or an Aquadaquadocquadile. You will get from this book an authoritative introduction to these unique, amusing and fanciful animals. Each 'Impossible Animal' is described by a four-line verse that accompanies its illustration. The book is suitable and entertaining to all ages from 4 upwards, and would be found amusing by adults with a lively imagination. Reading these short descriptions to a young child who is viewing the illustrations is likely to lead to conversation about what the child thinks about such an unlikely animal. The verses rhyme and scan properly, and contain not only the hard-to-pronounce names of the Impossible Animals, but other words that will help to increase a child's vocabulary.
