Jellyfish are extraordinary creatures, and this book takes us deep into their world. It succeeds in being both a gorgeous object, with stylish illustrations throughout on carefully designed spreads, and a treasure trove of information. Readers learn much, from the scientific name for the group of animals to which jellyfish belong (Cnidaria), to details about different aspects of this lives, how they swim, how they sting (and how to treat it), how they reproduce. There are pages on different jellyfish, such as the enormous lion’s mane jellyfish, featured in a Sherlock Holmes story, the huge and very poisonous Drymonema dalmatimun and many-ribbed jellyfish, which glows in the dark.

The illustrations are beautiful while there are cross sections, top views and elegant graphics to provide a full picture. The final pages detail the Turritopsis nutricula, aka the immortal jellyfish, that seems to be able to regenerate endlessly; that seems a fitting finale to a book that captures the endless appeal of these fascinating, beautiful creatures.
