The Ugly Five

Who's that singing on the savannah? It is the top 5 animals in Africa! The wildebeest, warthog, vulture, hyena and marabou stork swagger across the savannah, rejoicing their ugliness and delighting their babies, who think they're perfect the way they are. Inspired by the real-life, the book, The Ugly Five, by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler's, is a gorgeous picture book which is a celebration of animals that are rather unloved. The funny, heart-warming rhyme is a joy to read out loud, while bold and comical illustrations bring the savannah to life.
