Synopsis

A powerful environmental plea from one of Britain's finest illustrators. Baboons and bison, beavers, bats, ostriches and meerkats: animals from all over the world have come to our street! One boy's nocturnal visit from a parade of dancing animals warns us all that the world we share is in danger. With loveable illustrations and lilting rhythms, Michael Foreman has created a fun and beautiful book with a serious message.

Media Reviews
A beautiful tale. * The Sun *
The miserable timeliness of this is softened by a jolly dance all night long, but the message, the rumbustious couplets and the illustrations will stay in the reader's mind long after the book is finished. * The Times *
