Poison. Poisonous representatives of the animal kingdom

Furry animals with giant eyes and poisonous bites, tiny glittering octopuses with deadly powers, menacing spiders, snakes and scorpions... All these animals have a mysterious weapon for survival - a unique poison - whose precise composition helps to fight predators or subdue prey.

This educational, engaging and beautifully illustrated animal book for children provides an overview of the exotic and dangerous, but often gorgeous-looking members of the animal kingdom.
