It’s a visual book, which I didn’t realize when I downloaded it as an audiobook to liven up car rides with my nature facts-loving 8yo. They should definitely have made that more clear for the audio version, and also given some kind of explanation for how info was laid out — the book is full of what I assume are sidebars or legends that would make a lot of sense in graphic format, but sounded like disjointed lists when read aloud. Still, we enjoyed it a lot and learned many things (but I am discomfited to learn from one Goodreads reviewer that there are many inaccuracies! Yikes!).
