Product DescriptionA new title in the Animal Close-Ups series, the books are produced in collaboration with the Natural History Museum, London. Their photographer has taken all the photos especially for the books, and their experts have checked and approved all the contents. Each book in the series looks at related groups of animals in spectacular photographs, and zooms in on their fascinating details, to see in close-up how nature has designed them for living. Cats come in all shapes and sizes, from huge roaring tigers to small purring pet cats. We explore their similarities and differences, zooming in for a close look at their fur and teeth, paws and claws. The first-person text is lively and direct, to really engage the young reader.
