On every spread spectacular photographs, taken especially for these books, display the wonders of the natural world. Woven around them is an expert, lively text from top children's author, Barbara Taylor. Scary and Sneaky looks at the amazing variety of ways in which animals and plants attack their prey, defend themselves - and terrify us! Plus the relentless Earth itself, with its awesome power bringing us some nasty surprises. Barbara Taylor is a prolific and award-winning author of children's books on natural history. Her many published titles include Earth Explained (Marshall Editions) which won the American Institute of Physics Science Writing Award 1998 and the Look Closer series for DK.
