The Usborne Book of Animals

By James MacLaine

Get up close with all kinds of animals - some you might already know, others you almost certainly won't. Discover how to identify a giraffe by its patterns, what makes a rattlesnake rattle, where a goldfish keeps its teeth and why slime oozes from a caecilian's skin. Diagrams unpick how a newt breathes underwater and what goes on inside eggs, while a quiz about beak shapes reveals which bird eats what. The details in the wildlife photos are so incredible, you'll feel as if you could stroke the feathers on an eagle owl and count the hairs on an orangutan's chin.
