Notes From Your Bookseller

Welcome to Ed Yong's Alice-in-Wonderland world of animal sense and sensibility. Vibrant poetic tales of creatures that crawl, swim, fly, those of the night, of the sun, of the hidden depths of oceans, or in our homes, each perceiving the world in vastly different ways, from each other, and from us.
