Great handy book for any classroom or family bookshelf!

Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for letting me read an advance copy of this book in exchange for my review.

Like all of Julia Rothman's books, Wildlife Anatomy is a beautifully illustrated work of art. My children and I used Wildlife Anatomy while doing a nature study in our homeschool curriculum. We loved how easy the information about the animals was to access-as a neurodivergent family, we appreciate concise language and captions!

Beautifully illustrated it brings to life the unique features of animals. I enjoyed the whimsical drawings and the attention to detail. Informative and entertaining it is a great read for animal lovers of all ages. especially children.

This book is cute and as enjoyable as another I have by the author, however the formatting of the ARC made it difficult to read in its entirety.

I absolutely love books like these! The book was fun to read, pretty to look at and also educative! There is so much detail and lots to learn, I think this book is suited to readers of any and all ages!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with this book.

Lovely illustrations. This is a beautiful book that I would happily recommend to a broad range of ages. I think adults would be just as happy to peruse this as children would.

Thank you to Netgalley, Julia Rothman, and Storey Publishing, Storey Publishing, LLC for providing me with a free copy for an honest review!

This is a lovely book. The illustrations are beautiful and accompanied by plenty of valuable information for children (I could learn a lot though as well).

I loved reading Wildlife Anatomy. The illustrations are so eye-catching and interesting and accompany the content so well. It's very educational but not overwhelming and I love how the info is split up, like the section showing the different ecosystems. I think this is a fun and educational read for families.

I have Julia Rothman’s first four books: Nature Anatomy, Food Anatomy, Farm Anatomy, and Ocean Anatomy, but I had no idea that Wildlife Anatomy was out. I was thrilled to discover it and just as thrilled to discover that it is just as fabulous as her other ones. Chapter by chapter there are amazing and incredible facts on every single page.
The World Over: Animals from far and wide…
Tooth and Claw: From Fish to Birds and Cats and Dogs, this chapter is all about who hunts what and how.
Have you Herd? If if it lives in a herd, you will find it in this chapter… so many buck varieties and horns of every kind. As well as all hoofed animals, and the biggest kind of “herdy” creatures: elephants.
Social Networks: Naturally this section is about animals that live and thrive in groups, especially our local meerkats.
Built from the Ground Up: If you didn’t think animal architecture was interesting before, you will after reading this chapter… from tiny birds and insects, to the well known beaver…
Weird and Wonderful: And are there some very weird creatures in this world… huge chameleons, an axolotl, and the list goes on.
Consider Helping: This is just one page but packed with interesting links and places we can go online to help wildlife organisations around the world.
Each double page spread is filled with an animal or a type of animal. While there are few words, making it extremely readable, in typical Julia Rothman style there is a surprising amount of incredible facts. Between the detailed illustrations and the punchy paragraphs, this is the kind of book that fills your “Did you you?” bucket. This book is suitable for animal lovers of all ages and stages, literally something new and interesting on every page. I absolutely loved this and will be adding it to my collection of favourites.

I accessed a digital review copy of this book from the publisher.
The book is illustrated with pictures of the various animals and where they live. It contains information about the various places creatures live along with information about the different types of animals. There are also sections about comparisons between animals by overall type.
This would be a good book for school-aged children and older.

Just little Ms. Rothman’s other titles, this book contains beautiful illustrations, and descriptions that engage readers of any age. We will be using this book in our homeschool endeavors, like we do with all the others. A very approachable way to learn about nature, and to help develop a love of nature journaling.

Thank you to Netgalley for the opportunity to review this advance copy.

A stunning book, which is unsurprising coming from Rothman. A colorful introduction to the topics in overview, I was pleasantly surprised by the wealth of information available alongside the beautiful work. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an opportunity with the title.

Interesting book about various members of the wild kingdom! Illustrated in Rothman's usual style, the latest installation in her "Anatomy" series is a fun look into nature and it's inhabitants! I love that the proceeds are going to a good cause as well.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the advance copy, all opinions are my own and freely given!

As a homeschooling family, we own all of Julia Rothman's backlisted titles and I was so excited to get my paws (see what I did there?) on her newest release. It did not disappoint! One of my favorite things about her books are the beautiful, colorful illustrations. They hold my childrens' interest unlike many other educational texts. There is a vast array of information here with everything from ecology and animal anatomy to animal behavior and conservation. However, it feels accessible rather than overwhelming. My children and I learned about many species we had never heard of before, which I consider a win! I also enjoyed reading about current scientific research in the field.

We will be adding this to our homeschool library to use in conjunction with our biology curriculum, and simply as a fun resource!

I have been eyeballing this book out of the ARC reviews that I need to do and after my last unfortunate run-in I was a bit worried on whether this would be another Woke mess. But fortunately to say this is actually one book that I found myself really enjoying.

<i>Wildlife Anatomy</i> was rather refreshing since it was focused on presenting to the readers just animals facts while combining it in a format that combined the best of animal encyclopedia-type books with <i>Zoobooks</i>.

First of all the book was split into six chapters/sections that focused on one particular element of animal lives whether it was about weird yet wonderful traits, social lives of these animals, breakdown of various predators vs prey, etc. And from there each chapter/section dedicated some of its pages to further highlight specific animal comparisons such as browsers versus grazers, eye-placement, types of animals that fish for their dinner, etc. And finally rarely interspersed would be included full diagrams of specific animal models with a breakdown of their anatomies' most important aspects and what they offer to help the creature survive.

All of this information was presented to the reader in easy-to-read and understand language so even though the book is a bit on the big side still elementary children will find this a great book to get their hands on. There is also some inclusion of pronunciation for some of the animals that may be a bit harder to pronounce if the reader should not have heard of them before.

The book is also brightly colored and has plenty of detailed illustrations to help break-up the reading for young readers who may just want to browse a bit as they read. There were a few spots in which parts of the illustration elements were a bit on the offside thus making the creatures look a bit on the weird side.

All in all this was a great and interesting book to read while truly would have been a book that I would have found myself picking out of the library if it had been available to myself when I was a younger reader. And as such I think it would make for a great addition to any scientific libraries or those libraries of children who just enjoy animals in general.

**I received a free copy of this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.**

This was such a cute book! Great for animal lovers of any age. Full of fun and interesting facts of an array of animals from all over the world. This would make a great addition to any library or coffee table.

I've enjoyed Julia Rothman's other book, Nature Anatomy, so I was excited to read Wildlife Anatomy. The illustrations are whimsical - simple without being simplistic and with just the right amount of detail to depict each animal's unique attributes. It's a gorgeous book where you can read it from cover to cover or open to a random page and absorb some fun and interesting. This is a great gift book for any animal lover regardless of age - I'm pretty confident that you'll learn something new. I found myself sharing tidbits with others because the animal kingdom really is just amazing. Be sure to get an actual hardcopy of the book as it's much easier to navigate than on a kindle and you'll better appreciate how the colors of the illustrations add charm to an already special book.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Storey Publishing for the e-arc.

I nature school my daughters on the weekends and we LOVE Julia Rothman's books. Her newest book on wildlife has become our new favorite.

The way she melds information and images into a nature journal-esque resource makes my kids love searching out new information. The drawings are detailed and the diagrams are very easy to read and draw conclusions. We've been wanting to do a larger-scale animal unit after finishing up learning about oceans last year, and this is the perfect follow up.

If you've never read one of the Anatomy series yet, the books look like you've discovered an explorers nature diary -- there are drawings of animals to identify, descriptions of behavior and habitat, notations on their hunting patterns and what they eat, and how the whole system works together. They're split up into different categories that make it easy to flip through or read all together - and this one is no different. If your kids are into nature, or you've just come back from the zoo and they can't stop talking about seeing an elephant for the first time, HIGHLY recommend giving this book a look.

Unfortunately I couldn't read this on my kindle as thenset up was all messed up and it definitely is thentype of book you need colour for as well.
That being said, from what I did see, I think I will buy this for my nephew and niece. So it definitely looks well done and interesting.

If you loved Nature, Farm, Food, and Ocean Anatomy, you’re going to love Wildlife Anatomy. This was the perfect book to add to our Zoology unit. With beautiful illustrations and such great information, this book is the perfect addition to your library. My kids loved it!

Thank you NetGalley and Storey Publishing for the opportunity to read this book in advance of publication.
