Young readers who love the idea of exploration and in particular journeys to far off places to meet the animals that live there, will find lots to enjoy in this bright, stimulating information book. Double page spreads depict different habitats, from grassland to mountains, rainforests (you’ll need to turn the book sideways for that one) and the ice caps (North and South, turn the book upside down).
Each scene is full of the amazing animals that thrive there, all depicted in attractive cartoon-style illustrations while integrated text gives us background information together with some amazing and memorable facts. Did you know for example that brown bears can eat for up to 20 hours a day; that marine iguanas, the only sea-swimming iguanas on earth, sneeze out salty sea water after a big swim; or that camels have two sets of eye-lashes. The page layouts and illustrations are very appealing and this is a great and inspiring way to explore the world without leaving home.
Raft down rapids to see raccoons, ski across ice to spot emperor penguins and dive underwater to explore the coral reef and learn why discovering animals is SUPER exciting! From the leafy green canopy of the rainforest, where gibbons communicate by singing, to the scorching hot desert where one of the world’s DEADLIEST scorpions lives, planet Earth is full of AMAZING animals that are just waiting to be discovered. Did you know that marine iguanas sneeze out salty sea water after a big swim? Or that a narwhal’s tusk is actually a very, VERY long tooth? And did you know that dung beetles are the STRONGEST animals on earth? Explore a different habitat on every spread, with fun and vibrant illustrations and fact-filled text for intrepid adventurers who want to know EVERYTHING about the world we live in. Readers will be taken all around the globe to discover a world of animals across rainforests and jungles, rivers and rapids, deserts and ice, and much more.
