What do we use it for?
Water keeps us alive.
We are water, and water is us.

they live in. His bright and cheerful images, which are accompanied

unexpected partner, could make all the difference to survival -
whether it's warding off predators, removing parasites or aiding
reproduction. This beautifully illustrated title explores organisms
that have learnt to adapt and co-exist in the wild. From the
monarch butterfly that only exists on one type of plant, to the
majestic bobtail squid that acquires its illuminating glow from
bacteria that live on its skin, take a closer look at some of
nature's most fascinating symbiotic relationships. Stunning
illustrations by debut artist Georgina Taylor capture these
astonishing moments in the wild. The ideal gift for nature lovers.

stickers to bring each page to life. Themes include a sandy beach,
crabs and starfish in rockpools, sea birds, seals, puffins, sea
otters and turtles.

scavenger hunts, projects such as Weave a Web or Make a Bug Hotel,
and cool bug facts boost the insect intrigue. Equipped with a real
magnifying glass, stickers, and a log for recording sightings, this
