Tessloff Stinker, Sauger, Schleimer. 22 grossartige Gruseltiere

Dogs, cats, squirrels, and bees are cute, and every child loves them. But there are also many animals that wouldn't win a beauty contest and struggle through life without the cuddly factor: they are slimy, creepy, eerie, or simply disgusting. Nevertheless, these animals do incredible things for their survival and ours. Vultures protect us from nasty pathogens. A small crab produces a loud bang when threatened, alarming even submarine captains and causing glass to shatter, and the hirudin produced by slimy leeches reduces inflammation and alleviates pain. This is reason enough to give these and other heroic animals a platform and to recognize their outstanding talents and qualities. Additionally, there are specials like "The Deadliest Animals in the World." An exciting non-fiction book for children aged 8 and up, featuring astonishing statistics and unique graphics that stick in your mind and provoke thought.
