This book gives information about amazing animals around the world. There are endangered animals, record-setting animals, and animals that survive in extreme conditions. I liked that this book is divided into sections for animals in different types of ecosystems. There is a section about nocturnal animals, whales and dolphins, insects, types of octopi, animals that transform, animals that migrate, and even wild animals that live in the city.
I loved the beautiful illustrations in this book! Every page is so attractive and colorful. The factoids about each animal are really interesting, and the design of the page layouts makes it easy to read. There are little snippets of information next to illustrations of each animal, and you get to learn so much so quickly!
It really gets on my nerves when science books talk about scientific theories as if they were fact, and they don't tell the reader that it's just a theory. It's so unethical, and it's misleading. It makes me not trust anything else they say, because who knows what else they could be lying to the reader about. If you don't have the evidence to prove something, then you shouldn't be pretending like it's a fact. That's dishonest. It would be so easy to clear up these misunderstandings if they would just admit that it's a theory! Thankfully, there were only a few places like that, and the rest of the information in the book appears to be correct.
