Taxonomic sets, curious collections, and quirky groupings reveal familiar and surprising connections between animals, their bodies, and their behavior – in a glorious visual feast of more than 3,000 images!

Discover everything you wanted to know about the animal kingdom in this book – how do scientists organize frogs? what are the places animals live? and why do they use tools?

Turn the beautiful pages of this compendium to read all about animal taxonomy - the groups animals are organized into. You’ll meet mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates, learning about their similarities and differences. Find out also how animals are classified in more unusual ways: by their habitat, body parts, or behavior.

Easy-to-understand, expert-written text and attractive plates of vibrant pictures make Animals, A Visual Compendium a veritable treasure trove for young (or old!) animal lovers who are curious about the creatures around them. This book will keep you engaged for hours - it is a must-have for any family library.
We believe in the power of discovery. That's why we create books for everyone that explore ideas and nurture curiosity about the world we live in.
