I See a Kookaburra!

ebook

I See a Kookaburra! lets readers search for an oystercatcher, an elephant shrew, and a fierce snapping turtle in the places where they live.

Learn how these animals and many others grow and thrive in very different environments. Steve Jenkins and Robin Page explore six distinct habitats around the world, from an African savanna to an English tide pool. Each featured region reveals how animals adapt their shapes and habits to survive.

Intricate cut-paper collages present eight wildlife species in each setting, including sleeping koalas and red-eyed tree frogs. Notes at the back of the book provide extra details about how every creature adapts to its home.

Incorporated into the book is an interactive element. Hidden in the illustrations are animals camouflaged in their surroundings. Turn the page to see if you were able to find them all!
