An Animal a Day

365 Amazing Animals to Take You Through the Year

Discover a fascinating new animal for every day of the year! The perfect gift for animal lovers aged 6 and up.

New day, new animal!

In this gorgeous calendarized collection, you'll travel through the incredible ecosystems and habitats of our wild planet and meet 365 of the amazing animals that call it home.

Dive into the oceans to find whales and giant squid, soar though skies with eagles and snowy owls, race across the African savanna with lions and wildebeest—and so much more. 

Each day’s entry is filled with fascinating facts and breathtaking illustrations that bring animals to life. You'll encounter familiar favorites, plus find out new sides to critters you thought you already knew and learn about completely new animals.

Packed with engaging info, this book also features information about conservation and how we can protect endangered animals and their environments.

It's the ultimate gift for any animal lover, from age 6 to 106!
Miranda Smith has written and edited information books and articles for children and adults on a variety of subjects. Like the children she writes for, she likes to explore and find out about new things.

Max Rambaldi draws mostly with my graphic tablet, but loves the freshness of watercolors and the mellowness of the acrylics, so always tries to incorporate them by using textured brushes. What she loves more than anything is scientific children books. View titles by Miranda Smith
