These stimulating photographs capture peculiar behaviour in the animal kingdom and introduce the idea that animals, like humans, have their share of funny moments. Elephants greet each other with their trunks, a pair of polar bears engage in a dance of dominance, and a sponge crab protects itself with a fancy seashell hat in these images by leading wildlife photographers. Early readers are encouraged to connect the simple accompanying captions with each colourful photograph, fostering increased language and comprehension skills while they learn about the natural world and the similarities between animals and humans.
