Default Rumble In The Jungle

Hi there, this is my first post and as we are currently exploring the theme of animals I thought I would reccomend a wonderful book:

Rumble in the Jungle by Giles Andrae.

This is an excellent book which really captured the children's imagination, it sparked a great deal of discussion and the artwork the children produced afterwards was excellent.

Hi

Hi Clare,
Welcome. Just had a look at Rumble In The Jungle, it's lovely. I'm thinking of getting it for my youngest (she's 17months) as she loves to look at animal pictures and I think this would really appeal to her.

Many thanks
Tracey
