What is Man Gave Names to All the Animals about?

A parade of remarkable animals appears as a man gives each one a name, inspired by Bob Dylan’s playful song. Jim Arnosky’s richly detailed illustrations introduce more than 170 creatures, from familiar farm animals to wild and unusual species. As readers explore the pages, they can spot animals, enjoy the song’s rhythm and discover how each creature receives its name. At the end, children are invited to choose a name for one final animal themselves.
