The Water Hole by Graeme Base
In the tradition of his best-selling alphabet book, Animalia, author and illustrator Graeme Base takes young readers on an exhilarating journey of discovery with an ingenious fusion of counting book, puzzle book, storybook, and art book. From the plains of Africa and the jungles of the Amazon to the woodlands of North America and the deserts of outback Australia, the animals come together to drink from the water hole. But their water supply is diminishing. What's going on? Each sumptuous landscape illustration conceals hidden animal pictures for readers to find as they count the animals that visit the water hole and try to solve the mystery: will the animals come back or is their water source gone forever?Graeme Base is one of the most well-known picture book illustrators in the world. When Animalia was initially released in 1986, it earned widespread acclaim, and it has since become a classic, with over two million copies sold worldwide. The Water Hole, Base's most current picture book, is a clever blend of counting book, puzzle book, tale, and artbook that has been published in Australia, the United States, Canada, Italy, France, Denmark, and the United Kingdom. Base, his artist wife Robyn, and their three children live in Melbourne.
