This is a book for children to enable them to learn the gender names of animals. So few children learn these now, even though it is general knowledge and part of the vocabulary of the English language. Sally King began writing using the simple names of farmyard animals; she thought this would appeal to five to seven year olds as well as their parents and teachers. Then, after some research, her results found that eight to nine year olds were not familiar with some basic names such as \"sow\" for a female pig or \"stag\" for a male deer.  The rhymes have been developed to include more unfamiliar names such as those for a crab, a falcon or a seahorse, in the hope of perhaps making the book appeal to older children too.  The repetition at the end of each rhyme engages the child.  In her experience teaching children of all ages for over thirty years, Sally knows how much children love repetition and rhyme. She sees the book, perhaps, as one that might be read aloud by a parent, with the child joining in with the repeated lines or perhaps a rhyme being read by a teacher to an infant class and the class learning the names as they join in with the familiar lines.  The author has not come across any book similar to this one, that addresses the subject of learning animal names, so she feels this will meet a demand in the marketplace.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49621468414225,"sku":"GOR009346831","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50989627998481,"sku":"NGR9781786238863","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1786238861.jpg?v=1751344872"},{"product_id":"kitchen-handbook-book-sally-king-9780720716573","title":"The Kitchen Handbook","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49646508343569,"sku":"GOR005502092","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0720716578.jpg?v=1751394395"},{"product_id":"animal-homes-book-sally-king-9781839757822","title":"Animal Homes","description":"This is a fun and educational book that is part of a series of three that have been written in rhythm and rhyme to enable children to become familiar with vocabulary relating to animals: vocabulary that is fast disappearing from our English language because it is not generally being taught or learned or used.  \"Animal Homes\" uses rhyme with bright, colourful illustrations to introduce words such as sett, drey, holt and vespiary relating to homes of badgers, squirrels, otters and wasps. It encourages children to develop their vocabulary through literacy and learning. The two other books in the series do the same with gender of animals, (Animal Families) and collective nouns for birds, (A Flamboyance of Flamingos).    All three books were written to encourage words that are part of our heritage to remain within our children's reach.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49740642189585,"sku":"NGR9781839757822","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1839757825.jpg?v=1751123213"},{"product_id":"flamboyance-of-flamingos-book-sally-king-9781786234551","title":"A Flamboyance of Flamingos","description":"Groups of birds have been given some charming names. Words that deserve to be preserved within the English language.  Here, the collective nouns have been put into rhymes that examine perhaps why those particular names have been given, at the same time providing a source of learning for children and adults alike.  The colourful and fun illustrations make this a book to be picked up and enjoyed time and time again. Gone are the days of going to school and being given a list to learn!

She powerfully demonstrates how the concept of the ‘hormonal’ premenstrual woman is merely the latest iteration of the ‘hysterical’ female myth. By blaming the healthy reproductive body (first our wombs, now our hormones) for the female-prevalence of emotional distress and physical pain, gender myths appear to have trumped all empirical evidence to the contrary.    The book also provides a primer on menstrual physiology beyond hormones, and a short history of how hormonal metaphors came to dominate medical and popular discourses. The author calls for clinicians, researchers, educators and activists to help improve women’s health without unintentionally reproducing damaging stereotypes.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51397708644625,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51397708775697,"sku":"GOR014257361","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52111245869329,"sku":"NGR9781447371632","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52111524462865,"sku":"NIN9781447371632","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1447371631.jpg?v=1751455921"},{"product_id":"menstrual-myth-busting-book-sally-king-9781447371625","title":"Menstrual Myth Busting","description":"In this book, Sally King interrogates the diagnostic label of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) to expose and challenge sexist assumptions within medical research and practice.
