This time, Paul is working at the zoo. He helps care for all the animals: the hungry penguins and the hippos, the giraffe family, the wild lions and the big elephants. The petting zoo with the local animals can't be forgotten, either. |

About the Series: |
|
|
"First Encounters" is a series just for children from the age of 18 months and up. With Paul, the little redheaded protagonist, children can explore the worlds of cars, tractors and planes, just the things that are most exciting for this age group. Large flaps that can be opened even by the smallest children's hands let them actually experience the scenes. Short texts and questions engage children, while encouraging them to open the flaps and repeat words. Every flap conceals a surprise, ensuring that leafing through the book never becomes boring. The last two-page spread summarizes the most important concepts in words and pictures. |
