Media Reviews
* Full of facts and surprises... a distinguished array of artists and authors, and a (narrative) approach more serendipitous than encyclopaedic. Each book has an entirely original slant on its subject. The Guardian * The best information books are so interesting that they make you want to find out more. The Read and Wonder books do just that. Margaret Meek, Emeritus Reader, Institute of Education, University of London * Charming and very informative... good natural history. Books for Keeps
