Predators sets out to explore some of the more unsavoury elements of New Zealand's environment. Designed with lots of pull-out boxes and quick to read information, and illustrated with diagrams and stunning photographs, the book looks at elements in the New Zealand environment that are not very savoury, and does it in an educational and interesting manner. Did you know that possums store food in their stomachs in layers, to aid digestion? Children are fascinated by icky and gross things -- and this funky book will not disappoint them.
