"Weird and Wonderful" is a series of four books on the most amazing
creatures and features of the natural world. The books are produced
in collaboration with The Natural History Museum in London. Unlike
many natural history books, these combine both living creatures and
the Earth itself, in an original and dynamic approach that focuses
on their amazing characteristics. On every spread, photographs
taken especially for these books display the wonders of the natural
world. Woven around them is an expert, lively text. "Zooming and
Creeping" looks at the fastest - and the slowest - on land, sea and
in the air, and asks why speed or sloth can be an advantage in the
natural world.
Sounds no human can hear, colours our eyes can't see, scents no one
can smell. . . revealed in the amazing world of Invisible Nature!
Discover how animals use these hidden senses and mysterious forces
to survive and find out how we have learned to tap into their
secret powers in our daily lives.
