The second volume of a miniseries devoted to the wackiest animals on the planet
After “Small Bestiary of Water Animals,” comes the second volume dedicated to land animals. A scientifically popular and easy-to-read book aimed at young readers who want to get closer to the kaleidoscopic diversity of terrestrial life. Through a focused selection of species, more or less known to the general public, and enriched by Cecilia Ferri’s illustrations, the volume offers an engaging account of the peculiarities and oddities that characterize the creatures that inhabit our planet.
