The first animals children become familiar with are animals in their immediate surroundings, or animals they see in films or stories. "My First 100 Coolest Animals" has sections on pets, farm animals, garden and forest animals, wild animals and animals by the sea.
We use simple photos to illustrate each animal, because they are easier for the child to recognise. However, there are also some colourful pictures of animals in their habitats, which we hope will inspire you to talk to your child about the animals and where they live.
