# Amazing Animals Who Changed the World - Board Book

by **Heidi Poelman** (Author), **Kyle Kershner** (Illustrator)

-   Stubby the war dog
-   Cher Ami the carrier pigeon
-   Winnie the friendly bear
-   Simon the seacat
-   Togo the sled dog
-   Able and Baker the space monkeys
-   Koko the signing gorilla
