Within the pages of this book
You may discover, if you look
Beyond the spell of written words,
A hidden land of beasts and birds.

But wait! It's all in black and white!
This will not do - this can't be right.
A world needs colour, shade and hue.
So grab those pencils - there's work to do!

Colour your own Animalia! Only the outlines of Graeme Base's amazing alliterative alphabet book illustrations are included here, so go ahead and colour the enormous elephants, hairy hogs, angry alligators and lazy lions in whatever hues you choose! Let the fun begin again!

This captivating journey is more than just a picture book - it's a visual adventure filled with hidden treasures waiting to be discovered. Perfect for curious minds and art enthusiasts of all ages. Unlock the magic of Animalia and be whisked away on an alphabetic exploration like no other!

Animalia - the creation of Graeme Base's genius - is infinitely more than just an ABC book. Kids Book Explorer
