Unseen Worlds Reviews

Microscopic 'mini-fauna' rarely receives even a footnote in a most children's books. Unseen Worlds attempts to put that right with a series of dramatic dioramas of everyday habitats and tiny, but no less charming, animals they contain ... Unseen Worlds delivers a simple message that resonates throughout: think small, understand big. It's a jungle out there. Everywhere.

* BBC Wildlife Magazine *

Enough grossly fascinating facts and bizarre creatures to make every reader twitch, itch and scratch.

* Armadillo Magazine *

One of those books that taps into children's natural curiosity and passion for interesting, fascinating, weird and wonderful facts ... Beautiful illustrations throughout that are also very detailed, to scale and labelled to link the creature to the fact.

* Just Imagine *

This well-designed book with attractive illustrations makes a yucky topic look quite lovely and the brief, simple text is accessible and interesting.

* BookTrust *

Entertaining and informative ... and a valuable teaching tool.

* Lancashire Evening Post *

Disgustingly fascinating! ... The world will never feel the same again after reading this book!

* Juno Magazine *
