|title=Remarkable Animals
|rating=4.5
|genre=For Sharing
|summary=Can I introduce you to the Ally-Topus? He’s ''powerful enough to drag a man in to water'', likes to ''hover over fragrant flowers'' but seems to be ''extremely shy'' and ''almost impossible to keep in captivity''. Sound familiar? Maybe it would help to describe the accompanying picture – an alligator’s head, a bird’s body and a platypus tail. Still don’t recognise him? Maybe we can try another animal. What about the Pleevillar? The By-Tollar? No? I’d best stop there. There are one thousand creatures in ''Remarkable Animals'' so we could be here rather a long time.

|summary=Emily Gravett is, let's face it, always good. There are books upon books which are well written and well thought out for the preschool market, but I can't help but feel like very young tots are often an after thought. Gravett, however, takes her sweet and witty style and gives it to just this market, and she is repeatedly excellent at it. There is just as much thought in her work as with any picture book for a slightly older reader, but it speaks to small ones in particular and I cannot do anything other than applaud her for that.
