Maths, Science & Nature Study

Bill Bryson turns his gaze inwards, to try to understand the extraordinary contraption that is us. As he guides us around the human body to discover how it  functions, what can go wrong and its remarkable ability to heal itself, what emerges is that we are infinitely more complex, wondrous and mysterious than any of us might have suspected. From our genes to our linguistic skills, our big brains to our dextrous fingertips, we are an astonishing story of success. And the history of how we have tried to master our biology and stave off disease is full of forgotten heroes, astounding anecdotes and extraordinary facts.

This book presents thirty traditional animal legends from African mythology alongside natural history facts, full-color paintings, and habitat maps. Geologist Nick Greaves compiled these stories after years working in the remote bushveld of South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Namibia, where he documented the continent's fragile ecosystems. Following his earlier work When Hippo Was Hairy, these tales showcase how both small and large creatures feature in regional folklore. Each story is paired with factual data on animal sizes, habits, and distribution. The text highlights how habitat loss and ecological damage threaten local wildlife, offering younger readers a deeper understanding of nature.
