What is Tenrec's Twigs about?

Tenrec is a small, spiky creature with an unusual crest of hair and a big ambition: to build the perfect home from twigs. But finding the right materials and making a shelter that will stand firm is not easy. As Tenrec gathers, builds and tries again, he meets a lively cast of remarkable animals along the way. This gentle, humorous picture-book story introduces young readers to tenrecs and other rare creatures, with fascinating animal facts included at the end.
