This book is a well-illustrated, informative work that using a numbering system to explain the ways that various animals and other living things communicate. There are 2 pages dedicated to each thing and they are giving information about how communication is used. The pages are descriptive and contain a large amount of information. They do contain a large amount of information and use some complex language, but overall a good read and great to the burgeoning animal lover in your life.

This is a very informative book on animals, insects and even plants. It is beautifully illustrated. There are a lot of similar non-fiction books in the market but this one stands out with the topic it focuses on and the array of creatures and plants that it covers.

This one was a bit wordier than I had anticipated for a read-aloud. But my animal lovers will devour it. I enjoyed the variety of species and the thoroughness of the writing. The illustrations were spot-on as well!

Wild Languages of of Mother Nature was a true joy to read. We learned so much information, though we'd previously studied many of its subjects. As a homeschool family, I adore books such as these with excellent illustrations and short, consice and rich text. This is a book to be read over and over, and that's what we'll do! Even focusing on one spread per week would give you nearly an entire year of engaging information!

I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys understanding how communication works amongst various creatures, plants and organisms in nature.

I am eager to have a physical copy for our shelves!

Thank you so much to the publisher and NetGalley for this ARC! All opinions are my own.

My kids saw this and really wanted to see if I could get it. The pictures and the different animal species is what drew them in. I agree the animals are detailed, vibrant, and yet mature for those older kids too. I love the range of different species and the cute dialog between the animals on the page it was quite comical. We learned quite a bit together which is always exciting. We never knew about Tarsier exciting, and they can match pitches with their prey of insects. Along with how the Koala is able to push air through flaps of skin to make sounds. Even learning about the Mantis Shrimp and how their eyes are each trinocular and able to focus on three things at once! Adding the different plants/environmental factors like sagebrush, and grass to see how they benefit the animals, how they heal themselves and their purpose was nice and kept the book interesting and engaging, not too much repetition. This book is beautiful designed and great for all types of learners. Not boring even for adults.
