The Wonder Garden: Wander through the world’s wildest habitats and discover more than 80 amazing animals

Jenny Broom,Kristjana S Williams

Celebrate the diversity of life on Earth with a parade of rare and unexpected creatures, collected in one, exotic garden. Discover extraordinary animals from all corners of the globe that have evolved to survive the harshest environments, outlive predators, or find a new mate, with the vivid engravings of Icelandic artist Kristjana S Williams that make real-life seem more fantastic than fantasy.

Review

Big, bold and beautiful, The Wonder Garden is a spectacular exploration of five natural regions of our amazing world. These are habitats that are home to fantastic creatures and plants, some well known and others more mysterious. Step into the brightly coloured jewel that is the Amazon Rainforest, home to more than 5 million species of plant, insect and animal life and over 1500 species of birds. Dive into the Great Barrier Reef where the weird and miraculous exist, next, brave the Chihuahuan Desert (the what, you ask?) in North America where conditions are fierce and the fearsome survive. Creep into the Black Forest, a dark and densely wooded region in Germany, and, finally, climb the Himalayan Mountains to encounter majestic wildlife that is remarkably good at camouflage.

Wide Eyed Editions maybe a new kid on the block but they are leading the way with captivating and dazzling nonfiction for children and The Wonder Garden is a perfect example of this. It is a must for nature-loving readers of any age.
