A Crossing of Zebras : Animal Packs in Poetry, Paperback / softback Book

A Crossing of Zebras : Animal Packs in Poetry Paperback / softback

Illustrated by Philip Huber

Paperback / softback

Description

You've probably heard the phrase a school of fish. But what about a rumba of rattlesnakes, an army of ants, or a crash of rhinos? Derived from both oral and written traditions, collective nouns go back centuries. These terms not only charm us with their sound, but they provide a bit of insight into animal behavior. Readers can find these and other terms--from alley cats to zebras--in fourteen thought-provoking poems by Marjorie Maddox. She and artist Philip Huber create a wonderful combination of rich wordplay and captivating art that piques the imagination.
