Animal Families
Meet 21 incredible families of animals and discover how interconnected our planet really is in this beautifully illustrated book by bestselling author-illustrator Matt Sewell.

Discover the family ties that stretch around the world with 21 fascinating animal families. From the various species of the fox family, to bears, owls, dolphins, cobras and more, discover the differences - and the similarities - of animals that are part of the same family, but might live continents apart.
A celebration of the amazing diversity of the natural world and fascinating shared connections, brought to life with beautiful watercolour illustrations by bestselling author-illustrator Matt Sewell.
