Who's that singing on the savannah
It's the top-five ugly animals in Africa! The wildebeest,warthog,vulture,hyena and marabou stork swagger proudly across the savannah,rejoicing in their ugliness - and delighting their babies,who think they're perfect just the way they are.
Inspired by the real-life Ugly Five safari animals,Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's brand-new picture book is a jubilant celebration of animals who are often rather unloved.
The funny,heart-warming rhyme is a joy to read aloud,while bold,comical illustrations bring the savannah spectacularly to life.
It's impossible to imagine a time before every child's bookcase contained a sticky-finger-marked,lovingly well-read copy ofThe Gruffalo,so great has been the impact of former Children's Laureate,author,poet and song-writer Julia Donaldson.
Her extraordinary imagination has produced classics such asStick ManandRoom on the Broomamongst many others,making her undoubtedly the most popular author for very young children writing today.
