Is it a hat? A football? A necklace?

What is that small red object bouncing around the animal world?

As Red travels from land to sky to sea, it encounters a lively succession of animals—each group making its own funny guess about what it is. Monkeys swing down to play, buffalo send it flying with a kick, giraffes claim it as jewellery, flamingos parade it as fashion, and fish ponder its purpose beneath the water. Every encounter brings a new guess, a new misunderstanding, and plenty of joyful chaos.

Packed with bouncy rhymes and a very special game at the end of the book, collective nouns have never been so funny and exciting. From a chatter of bulbuls to an embarrassment of pandas, language learning is seamlessly woven into the story, inviting readers to delight in words that are as surprising as they are memorable.

Many of Us is a celebration of togetherness, imagination, and seeing things differently—because everything is much more fun when there are many of us!
