Critic Reviews

Owen Davey's sixth book in this brilliant nonfiction series (others in the series take a deep dive into learning about monkeys, sharks, beetles, cats and frogs) is as insightful, fascinating and beautifully designed as the rest, with a perfect amount of well-selected information for mid and upper primary school children. BookTrust
The text is genuinely absorbing. The language is pitched at readers from age 9+; there is a lot of information that will be new to young and old alike. Just Imagine
Young readers will be attracted, I am sure, to this addition to the 'About' series and will be absorbed by its contents. -- Nikki Gamble Exploring Children's Literature
