1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
Come along for another fresh take on the animal kingdom from bestselling author and illustrator, Sami Bayly. Discover 60 of the most peculiar pairs in nature and learn how plant and animal species rely on each other for their survival. Whether it be a rare tick living in the fur of a pygmy possum, a stick insect feasting and hiding out amongst the Melaleuca or a handfish laying its eggs on a sea squirt, incredible natural relationships deserve to be explored and celebrated. Investigating all types of relationships, from symbiotic to parasitic, this is an eye-opening guide to the natural world. Many species steer clear of those who are different, but the animals and plants in this book have evolved to form relationships with some of the most unlikely partners, and they couldn't live without them. This gorgeous hardcover book is illustrated in exquisite detail by award-winning author and illustrator, Sami Bayly. The perfect companion to The Illustrated Encyclopaedia of UglyAnimals and The Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Dangerous Animals.

Just bought a book off this clever lady to give to my nephew. She got me with the snail that crawls over birds poo & gets a parasite that takes over his brain & makes him climb to the highest point he can so he gets eaten by a bird & the cycle continues. Zombie It‘s a true story! I‘m at the Write Here Festival. 3 talks to go today then 1 tomorrow. I even got some op shopping in this morning! I am now enjoying gnocchi and a glass of rosé for lunch.

StaceGhost This book sounds fascinating! Does it cover lichen? I‘ve heard it described as a fungus that enslaved an algae! 2y
