"A must for everyone even remotely thinking of getting a monkey, a sea lion, or, heaven forbid, a dog." -David Sedaris Whether at a zoo, on a camping trip, or under our bedsheets, we are surrounded by animals. While most are perfectly harmless, it's the magnificent exceptions that populate The Book of Deadly Animals. Award-winning writer Gordon Grice takes readers on a tour of the animal kingdom-from grizzly bears to great white sharks, tarantulas to tapeworms-that will delight, amaze, and horrify. Every page overflows with astonishing facts about Earth's great predators and unforgettable stories of their encounters with humans, all delivered in Grice's signature dark comic style. Illustrated with awe-inspiring photographs, this wondrous and sobering work is nature writing at its finest.
