Description
Discover some of the biggest and smallest things in the natural world.
This book explores the wonders of nature with awe-inspiring, realistic illustrations at life-size. Across each fascinating spread, beautiful artwork shows breathtakingly large or unbelievably small natural wonders, including eyes, wings, tentacles, sand, snowflakes, flowers and much more, all at real-life size, or zoomed in for extra interest. Marvel at the dinner-plate-sized eye of the colossal squid, the rainforest flowers you can sit inside, the fingernail-width dwarf blue butterfly and what sand really looks like when magnified.
Paired with captivating information about these incredible things, size comparisons and extra fun facts, this book will have you absorbed with the littlest and largest things on our astonishing planet.

Giraffe's being my favourite animal, I was drawn to this book by it's cover. It's simply beautiful. Full of colour and such beautiful illustrations, I like the zoomed in details and the information and facts are brilliant. I think this book will be even more beautiful in real life. Thank you for the opportunity to read and review this amazing book.

This is one of the cutest nonfiction books for children that I have read in a while! I can’t wait to share with my mom who is an elementary school librarian. I know her students will love this!

What an incredible book! I was hooked straight in by the gorgeous, highly-detailed illustrations which bring the content to life. I loved being able to see images at their real size and zoomed in for a really detailed view. My favourite pages were the ones about the owls.
This will be a fantastic addition to our bookshelf.
