Description

Join QI's expedition into the animal kingdom to encounter 100 of its most remarkable subjects. Marvel at the elephants that walk on tiptoe, pigs that shine in the dark, and the woodlouse that drinks through its bottom.

Albatrosses can fly non-stop for ten years without touching the ground
Box jellyfish have twenty-four eyes
Geese mourn their dead
Koalas don't drink
Monkeys pay to look at porn
Lobsters live for a century
Mice sing while having sex
Spiders can fly



Amazing facts from the animal kingdom from QI

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.
