Robin Twiddy – författare

Från koalor på brottsplatser till ödlor som springer på vatten – vår värld är full av knasiga djur. Det finns många absurda och smått otroliga djur! Här får läsaren upptäcka den tokiga vetenskapen bakom några av dem. En lättläst bok med oväntade, roliga fakta. Lättlästa faktaböcker på engelska som är lite vassare, modigare eller mer oväntade än traditionella faktaböcker – något som sticker ut och lockar till läsning. Böckerna har en betydligt lägre reading age än vad de har interest age. De är alltså mycket lättlästa - utan att bli barnsliga. Utmärkta för att få unga som inte gillar att läsa att komma igång med sin läsning!
