Wetlands are among the richest habitats on our planet, and a crucial home to some of the world's most endangered species. Bursting with frogs and other amphibians, as well as a whole host of other wildlife, there is much we can learn from diving into wetlands and discovering what they might reveal.
Packed with multi-layered pop-ups and flaps to lift, this incredible feat of paper-engineering allows young readers to look inside three wetland habitats, revealing wonder after wonder, page after page. From the surface of the water where bugs skate, spiders hunt and flowers spread their petals, to the murky depths where myriad creatures fight for survival, this book will take you on a tour of wetlands like no other.
Written by award-winning wildlife journalist and nature nerd, Ben Hoare, and illustrated in in striking colour and texture by rising star Jasmine Floyd, this fact-packed pop-up shows the true beauty of frogs, amphibians and the wildlife they live alongside. Perfect for readers from 7 to 100.
