The delightful paintings in this series are at once soft and graphic, resembling Japanese calligraphy with bold, but spare, slashes of detail punctuating sensitive watercolors that capture the movement and texture of each animal so well they’re almost touchable! Interesting, informative text offers a brief description of each animal and its habits, characteristics, or home.

“Cock-a-doodle-doo!” sings the rooster. The sun rises, and from one side of the world to the other, animals go about the busy activities of their day. In the forest, a deer gets up from his soft bed of leaves; out in the ocean, a great big whale blows a jet of water in the air. The bold, 2-page illustrations will dazzle students, depicting how and where these animals live (and play)!
