Body Bits: Astounding Animal Body Facts

Bizarre, incredible and downright gross facts about human and animal bodies.

In Astounding Animal Body Facts, you’ll learn about some of the most unbelievable and intricate adaptations in the animal kingdom. Giggle and gasp as you read about and see some truly shocking animal bodies, such as the lungless ET salamander that breathes with its skin and looks like your favourite alien, or the pistol shrimp that
can snap its huge claw shut at such great speed, it sends a wave
through the water that stuns nearby fish - how’s that for clever
hunting?

The Body Bits series is written by the hilarious
and knowledgeable Paul Mason, and illustrated by Dave Smith, whose
laugh-out-loud and action-packed artwork can’t be beaten. Reading and
learning become a source of endless fun for even the most reluctant
reader with Body Bits. Great for readers aged 7-9 years.
