I love this. This book is bound to do well with all ages of readers. I've found that many adult readers at my library are more likely to read a middle grade or teen non-fiction book than an adult one. This is true of readers who primarily read fiction. They're drawn to the teen versions of Great Influenza and Boys in the Boat, for example.

I preordered for my library. I'm excited to see the hard copy myself and share it with my groups. Thank you NetGalley for the ARC.

Informative and interesting! I liked the illustrations and think I would have liked something like this better than a textbook in elementary school. I stil learned some new facts, even as an adult reader!

Thanks to netgalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review!

How do animals and other creatures sense the world? How does this compare to humans? This book explores the answers to these questions and more. The layout is well done. The text is engaging and informative. The illustrations are a mix of sketches and real photographs. Together the text and illustrations work well together to present the unique information this book provided. Readers who like animals, books about animal senses, non-fiction, and informational books will want to pick this one up. Recommended for most library collections. 5 stars, Gr 4 to 7.
