Animalphabet

Product Information

Julia Donaldson and illustrator Sharon King-Chai have put together this BEAUTIFUL alphabet book FULL of animals. Un aspecto muy destacable es que dentro de los animales que aparecen podemos encontrar habituales como el elefante, el tigre o el canguro y otros menos conocidos como el pájaro paraguas, el yak o la codorniz, pasando por todos los tamaños, especies y hábitats. En conclusión, considero que es un excelente recurso para que padres y educadores utilicen con los niños, debido a que el colorido y el dinamismo de sus páginas pueden ayudar a los niños a desarrollar algunas habilidades perceptivas como la manipulación o la visualización además de habilidades cognitivas como son la atención, observación y memorización, les descubre una nueva forma de trabajar los libros, es interactivo, les fomenta el gusto por la lectura y lo más importante, les permite aprender de una forma lúdica y llamativa. I grew up in a tall Victorian London house with my parents, grandmother, aunt, uncle, younger sister Mary and cat Geoffrey (who was really a prince in disguise. Mary and I would argue about which of us would marry him).

Dot loved this book and her favourite part was guessing what animal came next. We have read this together many times and she is enjoying the accomplishment of getting more and more animals correct.The whole thing is like a beautiful puzzle too with hints as to what the next animal is going to be. Very clever. Before Malcolm and I had our three sons we used to go busking together and I would write special songs for each country; the best one was in Italian about pasta. King-Chai’s illustrations are enchanting with great splashes of colour with the scenes perfectly matching the animals depicted with forest scenes, water scenes and desert scenes. A feast for the eyes!! Ditto loves flaps and was more interested in seeing what is behind each flap than the related text but this is a book that will grow with the child and can be read and enjoyed over the years to come. Uno de los elementos que se incluyen en esta edición es la cantidad de sorpresas que encierran sus páginas a través de deslumbrantes desplegables y divertidos troquelados.

Animales increíbles” es un precioso libro ilustrado dirigido a los más pequeños de la casa. Entre sus páginas se pueden descubrir diferentes hábitats del mundo animal, además de jugar, mediante las adivinanzas que contiene cada página, y descubrir características y habilidades propias de cada ser vivo. I really enjoy writing verse, even though it can be fiendishly difficult. I used to memorise poems as a child and it means a lot to me when parents tell me their child can recite one of my books. Animalphabet makes the perfect Christmas gift with eye-catching artwork and an exotic array of animals to marvel over. Can you guess who has more legs than a butterfly? And who is wrinklier than a hedgehog?

My daughter just wanted to grab at it so I kept it out of her reach because I didn’t want her to destroy it!

La edición es increíble y el formato en que está diseñado muy práctico y manejable. Si hay algo que destacaría considerablemente son las exquisitas y delicadas ilustraciones delicadas, llenas de pequeños detalles que admirar. La ilustradora juega con el colorido de los animales y sus hábitats, creando en tonos pasteles unas fascinantes láminas llenas de magia y vibración. My real breakthrough was THE GRUFFALO, again illustrated by Axel. We work separately - he’s in London and I’m in Glasgow - but he sends me letters with lovely funny pictures on the envelopes. I studied Drama and French at Bristol University, where I met Malcolm, a guitar-playing medic to whom I’m now married.

When I opened this up at my front door I am not exaggerating when I say my heart SKIPPED A BEAT! This is absolutely the most beautiful children’s book I have ever seen in my life! The colours and illustrations are just GORGEOUS! I was afraid to let my kids read it in case they ripped it!
