"WildLives: 50 Extraordinary Animals that Made History" by Ben Lerwill and Sarah Walsh (Nosy Crow)
This is an awesome idea for a book, and one that we couldn't wait to dive into."WildLives: 50 Extraordinary Animals that Made History" by Ben Lerwill and Sarah Walsh celebrates some of the most amazing animals you'll ever encounter.
Animals that performed feats of bravery and intelligence that you wouldn't normally attribute to mere creatures we share a mudball with.
In this fascinating and touching book, children can learn about 50 courageous creatures from around the world and throughout history.
This captivating collection gathers heart-warming, surprising and often emotionally powerful stories of bravery, discovery and friendship.
Featuring a range of animals - from heroes, helpers and adventurers to achievers and many more - young readers will discover some of the most famous and unforgettable animals of all time, including our own favourite spacefaring pooch, the wonderful Laika - and not forgetting Bob the Cat.
Stunningly presented but with a whomping great big heart too, it's been long overdue that animals have their moment in the spotlight, in many instances fulfilling roles that helped us humans better understand science, our planet and beyond.
