From the team behind the bestselling Atlas of Adventures, this
journey of discovery takes you in large format through 31 of
nature's most unmissable animal events from between the two poles.
Celebrate the incredible ways in which animals survive in the wild,
from epic migrations and extraordinary behaviours to Herculean
habits. There are hundreds of things to spot and facts to learn
with every turn of the page, as you'll meet another of nature's
most adventurous creatures, learning about their amazing behaviours
and habitats. Each section begins with an infographic map of the
region it explores, followed by richly detailed two-page spreads
featuring its most fascinating creatures. You'll get to run with
the wildebeest in Kenya, nest with the puffins in Iceland, parade
with the peacocks in India, hit the dance floor with the birds of
paradise in New Guinea and go north with the narwhals of Canada,
among many other adventures. The quirky illustrations make the
animals' lives relatable to our own with humorous surprises: look
out for a drone bee delivering a bunch of flowers to his queen,
polar bears using binoculars to watch for seals, and cold-blooded
iguanas basking in the sun on beach blankets. Interesting facts and
figures pepper the scenes. Did you know that a Zambian fruit bat
can gobble up to twice its body weight in fruit each night? Or that
elephants have longer pregnancies than any other land animal -
about 22 months!? Or that, at only one day old, a caribou calf can
outrun a human? A 'Can you find?' page at the back challenges you
to explore the pages even deeper by locating the pictured animals
and objects. Children and adults alike will find inspiration in the
extraordinary feats of these wonderful creatures.
