The reissue of a fascinating book about the most interesting and amazing animals living on earth.

What does it look like?

Does flying fish have wings?

Why will he collect stripes?

What does the bombardier shoot from?

Is the lizard of Jesus Christ holy?

Here is Pets Wonders - a fascinating overview of 40 of the most amazing animals in the world! This is how Bibi Dumon described them with lightness, verve and a sense of humor, turning a solid portion of natural knowledge into a fascinating collection of colorful animal portraits.

What does such a flying fish imagine? That he would fly? Can it not, like other fish, just stay in the water? Thinks he's a bird? Maybe she should see a doctor? Was it missing the fifth stave?

The flying fish has all the staves in perfect order!

When a dolphin chases after it, the fish can, of course, get eaten. It would be the most convenient solution. For a dolphin. But for a flying fish, it would by no means be convenient. So it starts flowing so fast that it jumps out of the water. And when it is above the water, it unfolds its large fins and glides, glides, glides over the waves ...

For Zwierzaki cudaki, Bibi Dumon Tak received the prestigious Dutch literary award Zilveren Griffel (Silver Stylus).
