About the BookAn artfully playful collection of unexpected and remarkable facts about animals, illustrated by Swedish artist Maja Säfström.

My Review
| I got this in and read it in about ten minutes. It is a very whimsical, simple book with facts placed creatively on the pages. It was so much fun to learn several animal group names that just made sense (like a group of cockroaches called an intrusion). I personally don't care to know all of the information about animals and their digestion...but that was about the only negative I found. I was pleasantly surprised to find no evolution in this book! *I received this book from Blogging for Books in exchange of my honest review* About the AuthorMAJA SÄFSTRÖM is a Stockholm based architect and illustrator who has gained international recognition for her quirky animal drawings.
