This collection of poetry celebrates world wildlife in all its beauty and diversity with a particular nod to endangered species. Some poems are written from an animal's point of view, some from a child's and several poems explore threats to wildlife. From whales to big cats, polar bears, rhinos and the humble fox, these poems encompass a variety of poetic forms to reflect the diversity of the subject matter. The collection should be useful for combining natural history and the environment with literacy in the classroom for Foundation stage, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 and includes specially commissioned poems from poets such as Gerard Benson, Judith Nicholls and Helen Dunmore. The book is also endorsed by the World Wildlife Fund.
