Wild about Us! - by Karen Beaumont (Hardcover)

About the Book

From Elephant's long nose to Monkey's stick-out ears, everyone is worth celebrating, no matter what they look like!

Book Synopsis

Warty Warthog may have warts and tusks, but he likes himself that way! Join him as he celebrates all of his animal friends and the attributes that make each one unique. Whether it's Crocodile's toothy grin or Kangaroo's huge feet or Leopard's spottiness, each animal is different. Wouldn't it be dull if all the animals at the zoo--and all the people in the world--looked alike? A joyful picture-book celebration of everything that makes us individuals!
