Description:

My first book of Southern African creepy-crawlies is a companion to its sister edition on Southern African insects. The title covers 58 spiders, snails, millipedes and other creatures (excluding insects) that are likely to be seen around the home and garden. An illustrated introduction gives context to the subject, and then each page features: a vivid, full-colour illustration; clear, informative text and visual clues for both pre- and beginner readers; translation into Afrikaans, Xhosa and Zulu; simple graphics conveying the creatures’ size, what it eats and when it is active. This illustrated title will introduce everyday creatures to both pre-readers and those beginning to read in their mother tongue. The other titles of My First Book of Southern African Creepy-crawlies are My eerste boek van Suider-Afrikaanse Goggas (Afrikaans), Incwadi yami yokuqala Yezilwane Ezikhasayo ZaseNingizimu ne-Afrika (Zulu) and Incwadi yam yokuqala yeZinambuzane eziRhubuluzayo zaMazantsi eAfrika (Xhosa).
