Synopsis
Young animal enthusiasts will discover a world of interesting words from the animal kingdom - from arachnid, to biped, to crustacean - in this fully-illustrated book.
This brilliant vocabulary builder brings together 100 fascinating words to describe animals both great and small, each one chosen to delight, surprise and inform natural history fans aged 4+.
Artwork from bestselling illustrator Monika Forsberg brings to life twenty full spread scenes. Each double page spread is set in a different habitat and features five interesting words chosen by a natural history expert, together with a seek-and-find game on every spread. At the bottom of the page, a short explainer gives the meaning of each 'interesting' word.
Through engaging with new words, young zoologists will develop their understanding of the natural world and expand their vocabulary, which studies have recently proven to be the biggest indicator of a child's potential later in life.
- Explore animal lifecycles with words like 'larvae', 'spawn' and 'nymph'
- Understand the classification system with words like 'reptile', 'mammal' and amphibian'
- Discover animal behaviours with words like 'shoal', 'hibernate' and 'migrate'
- Learn what animals get up to with words like 'pollinator', 'bioluminescent' and 'camouflage'
- Simply delight in interesting animal parts with words like 'proboscis', 'tentacle' and 'baleen'!

George Sand (Paperback)
Seller: Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: new. Consigny, Kim (illustrator). Paperback. A scrupulously researched and tenderly revealing biography of one of the great pioneering figures of 19th-century French literature. Born in 1804 - at a time when women were deprived of their civil rights (along with minors, criminals, and the insane) - Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin grew up to defy those norms, both in her life and her writing. Adopting the gender-neutral pen-name George Sand, and in a career lasting over forty years as a novelist and playwright, she is best remembered today for the affairs and friendships she enjoyed with men: the composer Chopin; the painter Delacroix; the novelist Balzac. But this moving biographical portrait, written by Severine Vidal and illustrated by Kim Consigny, restores her to the centre-stage she always commanded in her lifetime. Not just as the daring, scandalously cross-dressing, bisexual, cigarettesmoking divorcee novelist, but as the brilliant chronicler of her changing time - and therefore of ours. A graphic biography of female novelist George Sand, whose life and work championed womens rights, gender expression, and sexual liberation. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781914224201
