WEIRD AND WONDERFUL

Weird and Wonderful is a series of four books on the most amazing creatures and features of the natural world. The books are produced by Oxford University Press in collaboration with the Natural History Museum in London. Unlike many natural history books, these combine both living creatures and the Earth itself, in an original and dynamic approach that focuses on their amazing characteristics. On every spread spectacular photographs, taken especially for these books, display the wonders of the natural world. Woven around them is an expert, lively text from top children's author, Barbara Taylor.
