It might be a surprise to find the things that stand out in us are the very things that let us shine. In UGLY, meet a cast of funny animals who prove that every peculiar trait might be there for a special reason.
From the shaggy fringe of a Highland cow to the hairy, dancing legs of a peacock jumping spider, nature is full of curious characters. While some might see a Sphinx cat's wrinkles or a Nubian goat's long ears as weird, UGLY shows that every unusual trait has a story to tell-and a reason to be loved.
Featuring exquisitely detailed watercolour illustrations and a cheeky sense of humour, this book takes children aged 3-8 on a global parade of the extraordinary. Whether it's the pom-pom hat of a Polish chicken or the spines of an echidna, young readers will discover that beauty isn't just skin deep-it's in the clever design of every tuft, scale, and goggle-eye. Can you find the most colourful part of the Mandrill? Hint: It's not his nose! Just wait until he turns around, and get ready for a belly-shaking giggle. It turns out, being extraordinary goes all the way from head to... well, you'll see!
UGLY is a quirky conversation starter, with a heartfelt message told through stunning detail, which will stay with a child long after the final page is turned. A heartwarming celebration of perspective, diversity, and the wonder of being exactly who you are.
Look closely-the things that make us different are the very things that make us extraordinary.Also from
