The animal kingdom is filled with curious creatures – but the stariest of starers turns out to be something quite unexpected!

Have you ever been stared at by a big brown bear?

From a gawping gibbon to a leering lion; a frowning frog to a peering python, the animal kingdom is filled with curious creatures – but the stariest of starers turns out to be something quite unexpected!

A rollicking rhyming text from Philip Ardagh, bestselling author of Bunnies on the Bus, makes Are You Looking At Me? pure fun to read aloud. Bold, graphic illustrations from Enrico Lorenzi are given extra punch with fluorescent ink and are packed with visual humour. Fans of the Oi Frogs and Friends series by Kes Gray and Jim Field, I Am a Tiger by Karl Newson and Ross Collins, and Never Tickle a Tiger by Pamela Butchart and Marc Boutavant will delight in the animal anarchy of Are You Looking At Me?
