continent and lift the flaps to see their unique environments and
habitats. Discover a world of animal facts, life-size photos and
creature features - from a bear's paw and a baby turtle to an
anteater's tongue and a goliath birdeater, the world's heaviest
spider. EEK! All drawn to scale so you can measure yourself against
them. You'll find animals living on freezing ice caps, high on
snowy mountain peaks, in parched deserts and down in the dark
depths of the ocean. They fly through the air, crawl among trees,
burrow into the earth, plunge through the seas, and prowl the
forests - and range from the tiniest of insects too small to see
without a magnifying glass to the blue whale, which is longer than
three buses! The book is divided into seven sections: North
America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australasia, Oceania
& Antarctica - each with a map of the major environments as
well as illustrated and photographic depictions of some of the
animals living there. Are you ready for this round-the-world animal
