There are 1.371 million animal species on Earth, each with their own quirky characteristics. Keep listening to learn some bonkers and hysterical facts about a few of them!

People won't protect things they don't love. People won't love things they don't know. Here's your kid's chance (and your chance, too) to get to know some awesome, amazing, and amusing animals! In this audiobook, you'll also discover:

I'm Mary Beth (aka, aReluctantMom.com), a wildlife biologist who has spent years working on wildlife conservation issues both as a field biologist and as a lobbyist in Washington, DC.

In the field, I implemented conservation projects for birds and marine animals; in DC, I fought to pass natural resource conservation legislation and distributed millions in funding for fish and wildlife conservation programs.

In short, I love animals and was reluctant to leave my work behind for maternity leave.

But now that I'm a mom, I'm trying to instill that same love of animals in my kiddo. It fills my heart to see him try to move turtles out of the road, rescue jellyfish on the beach, and save moths that get into the house.

The world around us is fascinating, as is the wildlife in it. My goal is to inspire a love and respect for this planet that'll make the next generation socially and environmentally conscious and motivate them to protect the earth, its inhabitants, and its resources.

Great book

My nature-loving kiddos enjoyed learning unique facts about some of their favorite animals. It’s entertaining, informative, humorous, and descriptive! It’ s a great resource for parents and teachers to engage children in reading and learning about animals. This book makes it easy for adults and kids to find new and interesting things to learn and explore. Well done

So much fun!

This one came in very handy for a car trip and was as informative as it was entertaining. It kept two little ones under 10 very amused along with two kid-ults (us!). You can really tell there are two passions here, animals and laughter, and its a lovely combination. Happily recommend.

I truly enjoyed listening to this book, so much so that my wife wanted to continue listening with me! The listing of animals we especially interesting!

It really is amazing, and amusing!

I found both the facts and anecdotes alternately funny and surprising, and was left wanting even more. There remain a great many other animals for the author, a wildlife biologist, to write about because, as she says in the introduction, there are 1.371 million animals on Earth! Kids will love the story-based chapters, presented alphabetically by animal name. Audiobook buyers will also enjoy the free, illustrated pdf e-book version that comes with their purchase, and the kiddoes will enjoy the free coloring book even more!

Perfect for the kiddos!

One of my kiddos' favorite animal is the Vampire Squid. Don't ask me why. So when I told him that we were gonna listen to an audiobook with the vampire squid in it, you can imagine the excitement!
What's really neat about this particular audiobook is that the author is a wildlife biologist, so the facts are credible and interesting. Overall, this audiobook was well-narrated for kids and even interesting for adults.
Buy this audiobook!

Great listen!

It's very interesting animal facts. I like the information that is not just for kids but also for adults because it has so many facts about each animal. I like how it organizes from A-Z so it is easily remembered the name and their facts better.
