Simple, cheerful color illustrations come with facts that toddlers are interested in knowing about animals. Each two-page spread features a realistic-looking animal plus a humorous cartoon-style illustration of the same creature. The covers are made of soft, bright, high-density foam, and the animal facts are stated simply, in words that toddlers can readily comprehend. In this book, kids learn that the lion is large and brave, which is why he is called the king of animals. Kids will admire the handsome, furry mane that crowns his head. (Ages Infant-3)
