Wild Wonders - Celebrating the planet's most misunderstood, unloved and overlooked animals

---

Beschreibung:

A breathtaking visual celebration of some of the incredible animals that are often overlooked and misunderstood.

In his new book, award-winning illustrator Ben Rothery sets out to inform and inspire children to look after all the animals on this precious planet - not just the big, bold, beautiful ones, but the scary, ugly and utterly alien ones as well.

From misunderstood animals like snakes and sharks, to detested creatures like maggots and hyenas, and from animals with unlucky associations like magpies, to those abandoned by us like orangutans, meet the animals that need and deserve our love.

Packed with stunning illustrations and fascinating facts, this incredible book is the perfect gift for nature lovers.

Also available: Hidden Planet, Sensational Butterflies, Ben Rothery's Weird and Wonderful Animals, Ben Rothery's Deadly and Dangerous Animals and Water World.

Über die Urheberinnen:

Ben Rothery is a detail-obsessed illustrator from Norwich, via Cape Town. He combines multiple processes to create intricate and delicate illustrations and repeating patterns, full of fine detail and vibrant colour.

Much of Ben's work is inspired or informed by his love of nature - he grew up wanting variously to be a shark, dinosaur or David Attenborough crossed with Indiana Jones, but settled upon illustration as a compromise that allowed him to bring those fantasies to life on paper. In 2021 he won the prestigious Silver Pencil Award for Hidden Planet, and his work is published throughout the world.

Ben works from a small but perfectly formed studio, which he shares with an unnecessarily large collection of very sharp pencils.
