Packed full of facts, stories and photographs, this is a great book for children, but particularly ideal for engaging boys with books. (CHOPSY BABY )

The ultimate full colour gift book featuring BAFTA-norminated Steve Backshall's encounters with the world's deadliest predators and packed with fascinating facts, killer stats and stunning photographs (LOVEREADING4KIDS )

If there's one man who knows his stuff about wild and deadly animals then it's Steve Backshall (FUNKIDS )

This would make the perfect gift for nature-loving children - and the ideal way to generate interest in those who have not previously expressed much interest in nature ... Packed with facts, informative and authoritative, this is a fascinating read. (PARENTS IN TOUCH )

[Predators] will mesmerize young readers. (THE GOOD BOOK GUIDE )

Incredible stuff! (ABC MAGAZINE )

Spend an afternoon with this highly illustrated, fact-filled book by BBC wildlife expert Steve Backshall, and you'll quickly become an expert in the fiercest, fastest, most poisonous animals in the world. (DAILY MAIL )

5.0 out of 5 stars great!! 10 Oct 2011
Format:Hardcover
This book takes a slice and dice approach to the deadly 60 usual suspects we have come to love from the tv series and presents them under headings like Bite, Senses, Speed, etc. My four year old son is a mad fan of the programme and this book is great for the younger reader: the layout is more fun(ky) than previous Backshall books and there are bite sized (no pun intended) bits of information that add to what we remember from the series. There are also some neat graphics comparing and contrasting different animals (what has the best sense of smell, what can leap the furthest...) which we didn't get from the tv - and some great photos. A cool book with loads of information for the minor zoologist in your family. The minor one in my family says it's `great!!'
