Reviews
... the moment we picked up this strikingly colourful, animal-filled book my daughter was hooked. Animal Super Powers drills down to the really interesting bits of animal evolution. Never mind the cute and cuddly – Nick Crumpton takes a Horrible Histories-style approach to the natural world, wowing children with the juicy bits... The detail Crumpton goes into is pitched brilliantly... the what, how and why are all covered with snappy, bite-sized text that is memorable for kids. Vibrant and detailed pictures are the perfect accompaniment, making the book ideal for KS2 children starting to learn about evolution – and their parents and teachers will likely enjoy it too.
Meet the creatures that have unusual and interesting ways of surviving nature’s trickiest challenges in this brightly illustrated title from zoologist Crumpton.
