A crash of rhinos, a zeal of zebras, or a pandemonium of parrots ... ever wonder what you call that group of animals?

Fantastic photography from award-winning photographer Frans Lanting introduces young children to animal groups -- their names, behaviors, and distinctive features. From the African savanna to an island off of Iceland, kids find adorable close-up shots and spectacular sweeping vistas of massive migrating herds. Playful text and design make the book a read-aloud treat that will have kids wondering what discovery they'll make next and parents trying to recall what on Earth you call a group of hyenas (it's a cackle, of course!).
Jill Esbaum is a full-time writer and author of I am Cow, Hear Me Moo!, I Hatched!, Stanza, and Tom’s Tweet, among many others. She lives on a farm with her husband and children in Dixon, IA. View titles by Jill Esbaum
