1,001 Creatures

With creatures as small as beetles or as large as whale, Finnish authors and illustrators Laura Merz and Aino Järvinen leave no stone unturned in their examination of the animal world. 1,001 Creatures is filled with fun facts that will delight children and sometimes (you don't have admit it when it's you) even adults: you'll learn how crocodiles keep their teeth clean, why herons rest on the backs of water buffalo, the kind of food whales eat, plus tons more about insects, reptiles, and mammals.
