"'Natural World' reads like a book of make-believe....The hook is: They are all true."--The New York TImes Book Review
"For a more comprehensive discussion of the world's profuse creatures and their ways and ecosystems....with chic illustrations by Owen Davey....[and] packed with short, informative paragraphs by Amanda Wood and Mike Jolley."--The Wall Street Journal

"It's a richly layered and expertly composed volume that may leave readers with the impression of having wandered through the halls of a natural history museum."
