A gloriously illustrated and fascinating bestiary of the world' s most extraordinary endangered animals - a treasure trove of vanishing wonders. The world is more astonishing, more miraculous and more wonderful than our wildest imaginings. In this passionately persuasive and sharply funny book, Katherine Rundell tells us how and why. ***A swift flies two million kilometres in its lifetime. That' s far enough to get to the moon and back twice over - and then once more to the moon. A pangolin keeps its tongue furled in a pouch by its hip, a Greenland shark can live five hundred years, a wombat once inspired a love poem.
Katherine Rundell grew up in London, Zimbabwe and Belgium. She is the youngest female scholar to be made a Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford. Her award-winning and bestselling books for children have been translated into thirty languages and have multiple awards. Rundell is also the author of a book for adults Why You Should Read Children' s Books, Even Though You Are So Old And Wise. She is a regular contributor to the London Review of Books.
