In every part of the globe, in every pocket of the sea, in ancient ground beneath your feet, up tall mountains you cant see, in stones, in plants, in birds and beasts, lie natures secret stories.This beautiful fieldguide explores the histories and mysteries hidden in the wild, just waiting to be shared.Readers are invited on a journey around our wonderful world, through wild forests, over mountains high, to the bottom of our oceans and the earth beneath us. Each chapter investigates a different environment, and within, the pages tell the secret stories of the animals, plants, and natural phenomena of these habitats. Some secrets tell us of links between species, or unusual adaptations and features, others tell us how nature has evolved, and many hold the keys to understanding our planets past.Readers will come away with a wealth of knowledge and discover how looking at nature today can help us understand and unlock mysteries from long ago, from bygone weather to the dinosaurs.Theyll learn how resin and rock can preserve longlost plants and creatures, how the rings inside coral skeletons can reveal weather patterns from the distant past, how layers of the seabed can indicate a previous mass extinction occurred, how ice can trap gases and tell us the makeup of our ancient atmosphere, and much more.The text also touches on how these secrets are often uncovered through scientific research, observation, fossil records, as well as using modern inventions and techniques like carbon dating.Spreads at the back of the book encourage readers to search for secrets in nature close to home and explore how we can all help protect the animals, plants and natural features of today so we can continue to enjoy and learn from them.The fascinating information is brought to life with meticulously detailed, vintagestyle artwork from Vasilisa Romanenko, making this book a true treasure trove for the whole family to enjoy.
