CARNIVAL OF THE ANIMALS (MORPURGO HB)

Collaborating once more with iconic artist, Michael Foreman, Morpurgo's poems are inspired by The Carnival of the Animals - a humorous musical by the French composer Camille Saint-Saëns. Building on this classic framework, Michael has added many more animals - they speak in their own voices, full of humour and brio, to tell of their lives and the impact of humanity on their habitats. It's a celebration of the natural world in verse, a book to treasure and to inspire.
