'Little clever clogs' collection is a must-have for children and other members of the family who are eager to learn about the natural and animal world while having fun.EXTRACT There are more than 9,000 species of bird in the world. Almost all can fly, and they do so better than any man-made flying machine, because of their forelimbs, which have evolved into wings with feathers. Birds are the only animal group to have feathers, which also give them protection from the elements. Birds have beaks, which they use for feeding. They also use their beaks to preen their feathers, to help them climb, to defend themselves and to attack prey.ABOUT THE COLLECTION The collection 'Little clever clogs' is about small animals and how they live.In the 'Little clever clogs' series :* The beesABOUT THE AUTHORSThe author, Ivan Esenko, presents the world of nature and invites the reader to learn more about the world that we are part of. His camera is his most faithful companion and its lens particularly likes to 'capture' those animals that live in close quarters to man. We take them so much for granted that we no longer seem to care for them. Ivan is their voice, he has become their 'personal' photographer.Alenka Vuk Trotovsek is an illustrator who knows how to give her imagination wings. She is inspired by fairy tales, children and nature. She likes to create dynamic illustrations with a touch of humour and mischief. She makes her characters come alive by breathing special life into them.ABOUT THE PUBLISHEROkasi is a Slovenian publisher with a vibrant programme.At every turn, nature reveals its new face and discloses a myriad of secrets.
