Take a look here:

You can work your way alphabetically through the various creatures (for which collective nouns exist) by selecting the initial letter and clicking 'Go'.

If you specifically require a book, rather than a website, try locating the source materials listed on that page. Most (possibly all) will be out of print but you might well find copies by searching on the UK's largest secondhand books website:
