Learn fun names for animal groups of the West Coast with a sturdy board book featuring the illustrations of Indigenous artist Roy Henry Vickers.
Bright blocks of color and tactile embossed pages bring the natural world of the wild West Coast to life--an engaging way to learn about collective nouns. Accompanied by a rhythmic, rhyming text, this board book will entertain babies, toddlers, and adults alike as they discover that orcas leap and dive in a pod, a bunch of sea lions are called a bob, geese make up a wedge, a swamp full of croaking frogs form a chorus, a jumble of jellies are called a bloom--and more!
A Flock of Gulls, A Chorus of Frogs is a vibrant addition to this bestselling, award-winning First West Coast Book series, perfect for storytime and supporting language development in babies and toddlers.

"A is for Anemone is a tactile knockout... the art literally stands out―every page includes a softly embossed feature that often can't be seen until children run their fingers over the page. The texture is in the tentacles of jellyfish, the lines of pouring rain and a bird that is almost invisible to the eye... it's a touch sensation." ―Shelf Awareness
"From the "geek geek" of the eagle, to the creak and rustle of cedar branches in the wind, to the sacred drumming of a potlatch and the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean, the rhythmic text, vibrant illustrations and glossy tactile finish of Raven Squawk, Orca Squeak will delight the very youngest readers." --Midwest Book Review
"... Graceful, well-constructed rhymes ("Hello humpback/ ocean blue/ chatty raven/ mountain view") pair with First Nations artist Vickers's crisp, luminous scenes, with animals drawn in the bold, abstracted style of the region's indigenous artists. Glossy elements add literal and figurative dimension: as a boy fishes on a dock under a blood-red sky, an enormous embossed fish can be faintly seen in the water below. It's a gorgeous glimpse of the distinctive landscapes and creatures of the Northwest, and it will enchant residents and nonlocal alike." ―Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
