Description

What do the ingenious sea otter, the incredible shrinking reindeer, the tree-dwelling baby dragon or the Dodo's long-lost cousin have in common?

They are all at risk of disappearing from our world forever. This book is all about the amazing creatures that are now endangered around the globe, from oceans and forests to mountains and snow. Filled with beautiful beasts, glorious illustrations, facts and tales, it will make you fall in love with the animal kingdom - and maybe even try to save it.



The major new work from Millie Marotta, 'queen of colouring books'. Fully illustrated, full colour, large format, a wondrous collection of disappearing animals the world over.

About the Author

Millie Marotta is a freelance Illustrator working from her studio by the sea in a little corner of West Wales. As a child she was surrounded by nature in all its glorious forms and it was during these early years that she developed an obsession with all things flora and fauna, later going on to study Wildlife Illustration. A fascination with the natural world, an appreciation of decorative design and a keen eye for detail are at the core of Millie's work.

In 2014 Millie released Animal Kingdom - A Colouring Book Adventure, which went on to become a Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller. Since then Millie has created a further five colouring books, loved by millions of fans the world over. Above all else her intention is to create beautiful work, which both captivates and charms.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
