An army of aardvarks, a formality of penguins, a huddle of hippos and a mask of raccoons. Welcome to the wonderfully strange world of collective nouns.

Join Adam Oehlers and his mysterious little friend on an adventure through lively illustrations and unexpected combinations. Can you spot the hidden character on every page? Keep your eyes peeled as you search through a knot of frogs, a jam of cars and plenty more curious collections along the way.

Educational, playful and fantastical, A Babble of Words brings language to life through Adam Oehlers’ distinctive illustrations, encouraging young readers to explore words, discover new collective nouns and let their imaginations run wild.

A beautifully illustrated book for curious minds, word lovers and families to enjoy together.
