This week, enter to win Dear Wandering Wildebeest: And Other Poems from the Water Hole, a delightful collection of poetry written by Irene Latham with imaginative illustrations by Anna Wadham.

Welcome wildebeest 
and beetle, 
Oxpecker and lion. 
This water hole is yours. 
It offers you oasis 
beside its shrinking shores. 

Spend a day at a water hole on the African grasslands. From dawn to nightfall, animals come and go. Giraffes gulp, wildebeest graze, impalas leap, vultures squabble, and elephants wallow. Irene Latham’s gorgeous poems are accompanied by additional facts that provide further details about the animals and their environment.

If you’d like to win Dear Wandering Wildebeest, please leave a comment on this post (including your first and last name), or tweet this line: Free Book Friday! RT to win DEAR WANDERING WILDEBEEST from @LernerBooks. bit.ly/1OrSN
