Wonderful addition
Beautiful art, and reference book. We use this for many science related projects. Teaches things directly, openly, and efficiently. The art is wonderful to look at. Some aorta are more vague than others, but that’s expected as not all science books can fit everything into their pages and must be selective. We live using it often and it’s been a wonderful addition to our library at home.

Beautiful Illustrations
We use this book alongside our kindergarten curriculum and it is so beautifully done. My 5 year old enjoys looking at the illustrations. The descriptions are perfect, in that there isn't too much to where it's overwhelming but also not worded for little kids only. It's great!

Hermoso libro
La calidad de la información, diseño e ilustraciones es maravillosa.Le quito una estrella porque eligieron imprimirlo en un papel mate que le quita colorido a las ilustraciones y me parece que no les hace justicia.

Beautifully illustrated compendium of animal facts
This book consists of some 67 illustrated charts grouped broadly into 3 sections; Habitats, Species & Adaptations and is packed full of fascinating facts about the natural world and the animals that populate it.It's the illustrations though that really make this book special - they are absolutely beautifully done. Even the dust jacket itself unfolds into a huge wall poster.We bought this for our daughter's 9th birthday. She loves animal facts and adores this book.Can't recommended highly enough!
