Wildlife by Paul Thurlby

Did you know green algae can grow in a polar bear’s fur if they stay too hot for too long? I didn’t!

Paul Thurlby offers some tantalising animal truths: some well known, others more obscure. Each page introduces an animal, a pithy idiom and a fun fact. The pictures are ingeniously simple and striking, and kids will have lots of fun with them.

You’ve just got to love picture books! They offer so many different ways of looking at the world and so many stories and imaginings with a breathtaking array of styles and creativity.

Explore the unique world of Paul Thurlby’s Wildlife with young ones from ages 3 and up.
