◎ Editor's Recommendation
☆ Presented with great effort by Thomas Müller, a renowned German popular science writer and illustrator, author of "Beautiful Walk"
Thomas Müller has created over 30 books for children and won the German Youth Non-Fiction Book Award in 2016. His popular science children's books, "Beautiful Walk" and the "Flip Through Nature" series, have been introduced and published in China.
☆ Step into the night and encounter nearly 100 mysterious nocturnal animals
Let's immerse ourselves in the night, venturing into villages, fields, forests, lakeside, gardens, and cities, to learn about nocturnal animals that are usually difficult to observe clearly. What do they look like, what do they do at night, and how do they navigate in the dark: for example, why do male cats "howl" at night, why can they see so well in the dark, how does bat echolocation work, and why do raccoons prefer to stay in cities?
☆ Classic natural history painting style, with precise, detailed, and exquisite illustrations; beautiful prose, depicting nature and praising life
The animal illustrations are lifelike and meticulous, comparable to those by Audubon. The language is concise and beautiful, conveying both the dark and profound nature of the night and depicting the daily lives of nocturnal animals.
◎ Content Introduction
The sun has set, and all animals are slowly falling silent. Is it really all animals? No! Many animals only truly become active when other animals' daytime has ended.
In this exquisite picture book, we will immerse ourselves in the night. Following the tracks of eagle owls, beavers, lynx, and bats, we discover who has left their hiding places in the forest or by the lake, in the garden or in the city, to begin mysterious activities under the cover of darkness. We can learn what they do at night, what special abilities they possess, and how they interact with humans. For example, why do male cats "howl" at night, why can they see so well in the dark, how does bat echolocation work, and why do raccoons prefer to stay in cities?
◎ Media Recommendation
This book cleverly combines elementary school knowledge with the magic of natural life.
—JuLit, quarterly of the German Academy for Children's Literature
Thomas Müller discovered nocturnal animals in various habitats and then drew them. These drawings can be cherished in an album.
—Roswitha Budeus-Budde, Süddeutsche Zeitung
Beautiful illustrations, beautiful language. For young children, this book is both large and expressive; older children can read it with their parents and ask questions, and even older children can read it independently.
How much we love this book!
—German Amazon reader
