The Illustrated
Compendium of Amazing Animal Facts
Maja Säfström
Although
this book was a bit smaller than I expected, it is adorable. It's
full of cute illustrations and interesting facts about all sorts of
animals. For instance, I had no idea that crocodiles could go without
food for three years or that they swallow rocks and stones to help
grind up their food. Nor did I know that the queen ant could live to
be thirty years old or that bees never sleep.
This
book is filled with wonderful little facts. It would make a great
gift for just about anyone. The thing that would have made this book
even more enjoyable is if it had been illustrated with a bit of color
instead of just in black and white. Having said that, it's still a
great little book that will no doubt put a smile on the face of any
reader who picks it up.
Thanks
to Blogging for Books for allowing me to read this book in exchange
for an honest review.
