Can I make a non-fiction recommendation to you all?

I'm currently reading 'The History of the World in 100 Animals' by Simon Barnes.

It's phenomenal. Each chapter is about four pages long, and examines how a species has had a considerable impact on the history of humanity. It looks at mockingjays as the catalyst for Darwin's theory of evolution; at fleas for their contribution to spreading plague; our relationship with cattle across history. Genuinely unputdownable.

It's beautifully-writtwn and includes colour illustrations.

Thanks so much, I love other readers taking time to make a recommendation

It looks good, if it isn’t too difficult in its wording my DS who’s 11 loves this type of thing. Might see if I think it’s age appropriate.

That looks so interesting, thank you!
