Think you know everything there is to know about our world's weird and wonderful animals?
Well think again.
From bottom-breathing turtles to fish that live in trees, set off with Edward Brooke-Hitching on a fact-packed safari to discover the strangest, silliest and down-right weirdest things our planet's amazing animals has to offer.
Written by former QI elf and author extraordinaire, the first book in Brooke-Hitching's spectacular new series is extraordinarily enlightening and seriously shareable. Both information- and humour-rich, it is a glorious treasure trove of bite-sized facts for children to either snack on throughout the week or gobble up all in one go. And with a 'Who's the Smartest?' quiz at the end of each section, this book is the perfect companion for children determined to know their barking piranhas from their purring rottweilers - and that's a fact!
Also available in this series: What's the Weirdest Thing About the World.
