A fact-filled, vividly illustrated exploration of the big impact made by some of Earth’s smallest species We hear a lot about the importance of the amazing, large animals of our world, but what about the little creatures whose roles are just as vital? Nature’s Tiny Champions sheds light on some of the animal kingdom’s most unlikely heroes. Featuring 20 fascinating animals, from the nocturnal dung beetle, cape dwarf chameleon, and golden poison frog to the bumblebee bat, reef starfish, and bee hummingbird, this fascinating non-fiction guide reveals how even the tiniest insects, invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles, mammals, and birds can play key roles in natural phenomena such as migration, food chains, and pollination. The book’s vibrant illustrations and generous oversized format allows young readers to see its subjects in stunning detail. Each miniature miracle-worker is represented with a life-size diagram, offering a clear sense of scale and detailed view of its unique attributes. Filled with fun, bite-size facts, Nature’s Tiny Champions is an engaging, inspiring celebration of our planet’s awe-inspiring inhabitants.
