One rainy morning in northern Tanzania, an elephant walked out of the mist.

A Day on Safari follows a single day in the wild — from the first grey light on the crater floor to the last soft light of evening — through sixteen real photographs taken on one journey.

Nothing here is drawn. Nothing was arranged, baited or moved. These are the animals exactly as they were that day: soaking wet, completely unbothered, entirely themselves. A leopard folded over a branch with one paw hanging into the afternoon. A zebra foal, minutes into the rain, finding out what green tastes like. A buffalo stepping out of the fog to decide what you are.

Children aged 5 to 8 meet tembo the elephant, punda milia the zebra, chui the leopard, simba the lion and twiga the giraffe — and pick up a dozen Swahili words along the way.

Every animal carries a Did You Know? fact, and every fact was checked against published research and conservation sources rather than borrowed from other children's books. Readers find out why stripes keep biting flies away, how a mother hornbill walls herself inside a hollow tree, what a dark mane tells every other lion on the plain, and what an elephant's trunk has instead of bones.

For any child who has ever stared out of a car window, hoping something enormous would look back.

• Sixteen real wildlife photographs, printed in premium colour
• A dozen Swahili words with pronunciation
• A Did You Know? fact for every animal, checked against published sources
• A closing page on Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara, where the photographs were taken
