The fourth in the Wildlife of the World series of children's books, highlights the fascinating wildlife of South Africa.

With it’s unique location between the steamy african tropics and chilly Southern Ocean, South Africa is a biodiversity hotspot. Huge right whales give birth in the shallow coastal waters surrounded by endangered penguins and noisy fur seals, while majestic lions stalk their prey across grassy savanna and beautiful sugarbirds sip nectar from fynbos flowers… together with ancient tortoises, scary snakes, poisonous grasshoppers and much, much more!

In this book wildlife photographer Hugh Lansdown combines dozens of colour photos with interesting facts and links to interative media, all taken during his travels in in this facinating, diverse country.
