About this title

Review:

PRAISE FOR LESSER SPOTTED ANIMALS

Joint winner of UKLA Award 7-11 Category 2018: 'Such a superb example of a non fiction text that can be read for pleasure as well as enhancing learning! You would have been thrilled to hear the stories of how popular it was in their classes and how children would return to it again and again'

'An amusingly different approach to natural history, fully of witty asides and jokey commentary, but also with a serious message about loss of habitat through human interference, tourism and hunting' Books For Keeps

'Packed full of fun facts with plenty of icky bits, these are the tidbits of information that will see your child win their local pub quiz in future years' --The Independent

About the Author:

When Martin Brown was little he loved drawing and he loved animals, particularly lesser-known animals, so it was only a question of time before he ended up drawing them. Quite a lot of time ... In the meantime, he grew up, moved from Melbourne to England, and illustrated the phenomenally successful Horrible Histories series. Now, at last, it's time for the animals.
