Stuffed with fun facts and actual-size animals, this colorful book will transport you to the jungle, arctic tundra, deep sea trenches, and more. Open it up and tell me you don't want to give that polar bear a hug.

The inside of this book is as beautiful as the outside! I quickly found myself drawn head over heels into the rich world of Margaret Owen's debut; it's so lived-in that it's hard not to be! There's not much better than finding such a fresh, magical fantasy to sink your teeth into.
