Inspired by books of world records, children are invited to learn fascinating facts about 22 of the most incredible animals on Earth.

Over thousands of years of evolution, certain animals have become masters of survival. They are capable of exceptional abilities, from perceiving sounds and smells that humans can’t detect, to creating powerful chemical formulas. Each animal ‘superhero’ is given a stunning visual portrait as well as superpower icons, from superstrength and vision, to superspeed and intelligence. Important key facts, such as the animals’ habitat and predators, give context to their super abilities.

A playful and unusual approach to a fascinating non-fiction topic for children, this book builds on children’s knowledge of animals, bringing them memorable facts to absorb. With striking graphic tarot-card-inspired design, this collection of record-breaking animals is for all animal lovers and would be zoologists.
