Description
Did you know that a sighting of a group of unicorns is so rare that it is called a blessing? When Fur and Feather Get Together is a fun and educational rhyming story about a father and child enjoying their lazy day together. Incorporating the warm and whimsical animal paintings of illustrator Kim Wyly, the father teaches his child what different animal groups are called. Ultimately, it is a book encouraging quality time spent together while leading to further exploration of surprising words and their meanings. This is a book that can be enjoyed equally by families as well as in a teaching environment. Wyly’s endearing and relatable illustrations of animals and nature are a perfect complement to the story. Frolicking across the pages of this rhyming picture book are beautifully illustrated foxes, owls, bears, sheep, raccoons, geese, fish, lions, whales, rhinos, monkeys and even unicorns.

What a sweet story! A father and his child spend time together in nature and the father teacher his child the names of groups of animals. I especially liked that the story rhymed so well! Littles will enjoy it! And the illustrations were really cute! I think it would make a great gift for a young child who was interested in animals.

This is a cute book! It tells about what different groups of animals are called (flock, etc.). It's a great way to for children to learn about the different names of groups of animals. It could be used as an introduction in a science class or in an animal storytime.
Erin C, Librarian
When Fur and Feather Get Together provides a great introduction to the names of group of animals for young readers. Very cute illustrations.
Richelle Z, Reviewer
This is an adorable story! I always loved animals and discovering the names of what groups of animals were called. The bond between father and child is well represented here. The rhyme scheme is great and will appeal to early and emerging readers. The illustrations are cute, but the story surpasses them and makes the book great.
