A Celebration of Evolution All of nature is beautiful. This stunning book shows how a variety of amazing creatures have evolved to look and behave the way they do.
But we should drop those opinions - everything has evolved for a reason, and is perfect in its own way.
Take a look at the vampire squid, or the duck-billed golden line barbel - both have evolved in interesting and amazing ways to find food, deter predators or attract a mate.
As humans, we like our animals to be cuddly and furry, or smooth and sleek. We shy away from those creatures that, to us, look odd. But we should drop those opinions - everything has evolved for a reason, and is perfect in its own way.
Take a look at the vampire squid, or the duck-billed golden line barbel - both have evolved in interesting and amazing ways to find food, deter predators or attract a mate. Everything is perfect. Everything is beautiful.
Illustrated with stunning watercolour images, this book will be treasured by families around the world. Its message is positive and life-affirming for children, for humans, for the whole of nature.
The perfect book for fans of Hidden Planet by Ben Rothery and The Golden Mole by Katherine Rundell.
