Discover the animal kingdom as you've never seen it before! In this charming and witty book, with words by Des Lynam and illustrations by Bryony Hill, creatures ranging from squirrels and butterflies to baby hedgehogs and tiger cubs finally get a chance to speak for themselves, revealing their quirks and habits in a way that's sure to delight readers of all ages. Whether you're a die-hard animal lover or just looking for a good laugh, Des and Bryony's unique perspective is guaranteed to leave you with a smile on your face – and every so often, perhaps, tell you something you didn't know about our winged and furry friends. 'Quirky in the best possible way. Putting words into animal's mouths is no easy thing, but that is exactly what Des has managed to do. It talks to us of being human – and also of being animal – but expressed in a way that we can relate to. And the illustrations take the words to another level: a perfect match!'
