(3) K-3 Short, descriptive paragraphs accompany collective nouns for sixteen animal groups. The featured groups include a colony of koalas, a romp of otters, and a scurry of squirrels. Wright's savvy illustrations--"ink and watercolor, then collaged with fabric and feathers"--are fetching. Readers will come for the engaging art and stay for the animal nomenclature lesson.
