Follow Zebra as she discovers how animals live and work together in this clever creature caper, packed with oodles of facts and a spoonful of silliness!
 
Packs, flocks, hives, prides and especially herds – there are lots of amazing animal groups but there are so many more. From chicken broods, shark shivers and meerkat mobs to baboon troops, tuna shoals and even a cauldron of bats, follow Zebra as she discovers how over 50 different animalslive and work together in this super-fun collection of awesome animal tales.
 
Find out who twists, swoops and flies with her flock? (Starling!) Or which animals hum to tell others in their group that they're nearby? (Giraffe! But watch out, visitors . . .  this animal has a mean karate kick!) Which animals clean each other, play together and look after each other’s young? (Lion!) Plus find out which group of animals ends up being the best at working together. And guess what? It’s not just zebras who live in herds as this little Zebra is about to find out!
 
Children will love discovering all the different kinds of animal groups and which clever creatureslive in them, together with awesome facts that are easy to remember to make learning about the animal world fun.
