Collection of Animals

Flock, gaggle, pride...these are all words used to describe a group of animals. Most of these we have probably heard before. But what about tower, murder, or even an intrusion? While learning the correct name for a group of animals may not be essential in every day conversations, it can be fascinating and spark conversations about language, animals, and collective nouns.

These books are a great way to get started. The language and illustrations are fascinating and present the information in an easy-to-understand way.
