Animals have a lot to teach us, if only we open our eyes.

The book's stirring lessons are enhanced by its stunning design, featuring a **foil-accented cover** and **captivating illustrations** by Kaitlynn Copithorne. Within its colourful pages, explore how:
- Owls listen deeply
- Jellyfish go with the flow
- Ants create great communities
- Squirrels plan ahead
- Fireflies shine from within
- And much more
Blending **eye-popping facts**, **brilliant science,anecdotes** and, where appropriate, **myths and legends** from cultures across the globe, from American Indigenous traditions to African lore to European folk beliefs, *The Hidden Wisdom of Animals* inspires a more reflective, personal relationship with wildlife and shows how animals can teach, inspire and encourage us in our own lives.
Transporting kids from their screen-filled lives to a magical world of natural wonder, this book offers a deeper, more meaningful way to connect with nature.
