Ferocious Wild Beasts!
by
Wormell, Christopher
Young Jack has been told never to go into the forest because ferocious wild beasts who will eat him up live there. One day, after disobeying, he finds himself lost in the forest, talking to a concerned bear. He tells the bear of the ferocious wild beasts and the two set off in search of safety. Along the way, they meet an elephant, a lion, and a crocodile and warn them, too, of the dangers lurking. Á la Chicken Little, the group progresses through the forest, joined by other alarmed animals, until they hear a terrible roar and encounter their own version of a ferocious wild beast! Full of wonderful, delightful illustrations, this is sure to become a much loved addition to your library! |
