Description

From an armoury of aardvarks to a zeal of zebras, collective names for groups of animals are some of the most fun phrases in the English language. The ever-evolving variety of weird and wonderful terms is enormous, and range from the familiar and everyday to the fanciful and bizarre. A Parliament of Owls is an illustrated celebration of the colourful ways we describe groups of our favourite furry and feathered friends, featuring over 100 collective nouns and over 40 fabulous photographs. Featuring: a sleuth of bears a cartload of chimpanzees a gaggle of geese a colony of penguins and many, many more. This is a charming gift book guaranteed to bring a smile to anyone's face.
