Billy Loves Birds tells the fact-filled story of a day in the life
of Billy, a budding young naturalist who is wild about birds of all
kinds! Billy encounters many different kinds of birds in his
adventures during his day at Forest School, and this book is filled
with facts about all the different species he comes across, and
some that he can only dream of seeing in the wild one day. He
studies a blue tits' nest with chicks about to fledge, spies a
kingfisher catching a worm, and shows his friend how to peck like a
woodpecker! Follow Billy as he shares his love of birds - discover
how to trumpet like a crane or laugh like a kookaburra and learn
what makes feathers fabulous or beaks extraordinary. With an
engaging and lively narrative from Jess French and fun, warm
illustrations from Duncan Beedie this book will help ignite a love
and appreciation for nature, right on our doorsteps. The Nature
Heroes series focuses on a group of friends who are passionate
about nature and the great outdoors. Each book features a different
child who has a favourite topic that they are fascinated by: Billy
Loves Birds, Bella Loves Bugs, Ava Loves Animals, and Pedro Loves
the Planet! Playful text and funny relatable illustrations make
this an accessible series, which provides an entertaining
introduction to the natural world.

Heard about the fish that clean shark teeth? Or the frog that lives
with a tarantula? Welcome to the weird world of symbiosis - where
animals form incredible relationships. Macken Murphy introduces his

baffling behaviour of some animals - from friendly alliances to
pesky parasites. You'll even find out about symbiotic relationships
including YOU! (Hint - is your head ever itchy?) By the end of the
book you won't look at nature in the same way again!

Explore ten of the world's most diverse environments and reveal
their hidden secrets with a magic coloured lens that illuminates
each page in a kaleidoscope of colour. Discover the dark and
mysterious creatures of the night, whose super-sensory powers allow
them to live and survive in the shadows, then switch the lens to
step into daylight, where the heat of the sun supercharges the
secret lives of creatures big and small. Finally, use the third
lens to reveal the luscious plant life of every habitat as you
travel through a jungle, a reef, grasslands, woodland and uncover a
world that never sleeps. This is an animal book like no other,
allowing you to view the natural world in full technicolour. With
three layers of artwork to discover hidden within every image, this
book can be revisited again and again, providing hours of
independent learning and entertainment about the wonders of the
natural world. See 3 images in 1 with the eye-boggling Illumi
series, featuring magic-lens artwork from creative design duo
Carnovsky. Dinosaurs, animals, the human body, and even ghosts are
envisioned like never before in this groundbreaking series. The
explosions of colour on each page are in fact three distinct layers
of illustrations, each exploring a different aspect of a
fascinating subject. Use the three-colour lens to reveal the hidden
details on each one, then read all about the topic on in-depth fact
pages. There's always something new to discover in Illumi! Also
