A CURIOUS MENAGERIE
Of Herds, Flocks, Leaps, Gaggles, Scurries, and More!
This gorgeous and unique picture book, illustrated with show-stopping collage art by acclaimed author-illustrator Carin Berger, introduces sixty collective nouns. A delightfully engaging read-aloud perfect for fans of Kelly Bingham's bestselling Z Is for Moose.
Have you ever wondered what to call a group of giraffes? Many mice? Lots of leopards? Read this book and find out!
What's this book about anyway?
It's about collective nouns.
What are collective nouns?
Names for different animals when they are together in groups. There are 64 collective nouns in this book!
Carin Berger is an award-winning designer and illustrator. Her cut-paper collages are made using ephemera, such as catalogues, old books, receipts, letters, and ticket stubs. In a starred review, Kirkus said of her Forever Friends, "Sophisticated, sensitive, and accessible, this picture book will offer new insights and pleasures with each season." The Little Yellow Leaf was a 2008 New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Books selection, and in starred reviews, Publishers Weekly called her A Perfect Day "lovely" and her Finding Spring "exceptional." She is also the illustrator of the acclaimed Stardines Swim High Across the Sky and Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant, both by Jack Prelutsky, among other books. She lives with her family in New York City
