The Big Book of Beasts

Meet the grizzliest, hairiest, and most wonderful wild animals from around the world

What makes a beast truly beastly? Yuval Zommer's beautifully illustrated exploration of the animal kingdom introduces children to some of the world's most fascinating wild creatures—from armoured armadillos and mighty bears to striped tigers and the famously fierce Tasmanian Devil.

This large-format treasure opens by explaining that beasts are wild animals that can't be tamed, each with their own clever ways of defending themselves and surviving in the wild. Through wonderfully quirky illustrations and chatty, engaging text, children discover not just individual animals but whole worlds of wildlife—from mythical beasts of legend to Ice Age giants, from creatures that might visit your street to endangered species we can help protect.

With expert knowledge from natural history consultant Barbara Taylor, this award-winning book transforms learning about animals into pure joy. Each page bursts with amazing facts, scenic compositions, and Zommer's signature whimsical style that brings every creature to life with personality and charm.

Perfect for young naturalists, this is a book that invites endless exploration and discussion about the incredible diversity of life on our planet.

Suitable for children aged 4 years and up.
