A funny and fascinating guide to the world of working animals – packed with astonishing facts!
Is your doctor a donkey? Is your postman a platypus? Probably not, that would be . . . amazing! But bee-lieve it or not, many animals do have jobs. Get ready for a whirlwind tour around the globe where you'll meet some of those amazing animals and learn all about the incredible jobs they do – from bomb-sniffing bees and detector dolphins to caddy llamas and the bodega cats of New York City.
Readers will discover:
- The role of therapy animals in helping people feel more calm in airports (including LiLou – San Fransisco’s superstar therapy pig!)
- How llamas can help golfers get around the course (without ever leaving a mess behind!)
- How bees can be trained to detect illnesses (Un-bee-lievably!)
- And much, much more!
Simon Philip’s witty, fact-filled text pairs perfectly with Adam Ming’s captivating contemporary art, making this book the perfect gift for any child who loves animals.
