Arranged from biggest to smallest, the wildlife of the world is revealed with stunning photography and gorgeous illustrations.

From lions and butterflies to sharks and spiders there’s an animal for everyone in this celebration of the animal kingdom. Every animal is shown both photographically and illustrated, and children will love poring over the detailed images. The index is packed with reference information, including the size and location of each species, and a tree of life shows how the animal groups are connected.”
