When it comes to animal books we're rapidly getting to the point where C needs something...."more" from non-fiction titles that talk about various animal species, their habits and habitats, lives and er...yes, even loves.

So we're overjoyed to see "Lesser Spotted Animals 2" by Martin Brown. The sequel to smasher "Lesser Spotted Animals" but more than that, another chance to find out tons about animals that aren't the headline-grabbing superstars of other animal books, but nonetheless are cute, cuddly and in some cases downright pongy!

Discover more brilliant beasts you never knew you needed to know about from the Altai Argali to the yellow-throated marten and everything in between. 

Our Second Book of the Week takes a hilarious and irreverent look at animals. Lesser Spotted Animals, no less...

Ah chess! If ever there was a game that takes a few hours to learn but can become a lifetime obsession, it's chess.
