From freaky fish to funky fungi and scaly skins to tremendous trees, wildlife can be both strange and fascinating. This new series takes a close look at wildlife and some of its most amazing plants and creatures. * High interest level books, excellent for less able older readers or reluctant readers. * Packed with strange and interesting facts about wildlife that readers will love; disgusting dinners, ugly bugs, weird weapons and super senses. * Learn about basic scientific principles through addressing fascinating questions such as: How does an ant find its way home? What does the position of a mammal's eyes tell you? and What kind of plants like to eat meat? * Fun (and safe) activities and projects enable children to develop an understanding of wildlife for themselves: try dyeing a plant, look in damp old leaves for beetles, and see if you can hear the difference between a blue whale and a humpback whale. * Weird Facts sections and Weird Words glossary sections help the reader to summarise information. * Striking full-colour photographs and artwork.
