About this title

Synopsis

Packed with more than thirteen maps and seven habitat spreads, The Kingfisher First Animal Picture Atlas is a playful introduction to animals, environments, and geography for young children. Beautifully illustrated by award-winning artist Anthony Lewis, with lively age-appropriate text, this atlas explains where animals come from and how they live in their habitats. An adorable penguinshaped bookmark takes readers on a journey around the globe, helping them identify animals in an absorbing look-and-find game. In addition to the colorful maps showing the continents of the world, superb full-page illustrations take readers deeper into the different habitats to provide an early introduction to the basics of ecosystems. This atlas will delight young children and is the perfect reference for both home and school.
