In light verse and brightly colored pictures, Heller provides an introduction to a specialized part of speech, the collective noun. She lists and depicts more than 25, including such familiar terms as "batch of bread" and "bunch of bananas," as well as more unusual phrases: "gam of whales," "muster of peacocks" and "parcel of penguins." The concept will stimulate the curiosity and imaginations of children with an ear for language. The illustrations, containing large, bold objects in simple yet striking compositions, ensure a visually inspiring exploration as well.
