In the Wild

In the Wild whisks young learners into the natural world of majestic animals like lions, elephants and giraffes with high-contrast illustrations that are tailor-made for infant visual development. Red foil highlights add a touch of wonder, helping to stimulate attention and maintain focus, while bold outlines support early object recognition. Designed to appeal to both children and educators, this durable board book strengthens first vocabulary and encourages interactive shared reading experiences. Each page not only presents a beautifully stylised wild animal but also labels it with a simple word, making it perfect for introducing nature-themed vocabulary. As little eyes take in each striking image, their brains are busy forming essential connections between words, images and meaning-supporting long-term literacy growth.
