Aina Bestard Eatopedia Hardback Book

How do animals digest the food they eat? What is their favourite food? Discover how the different digestive systems of 70 different animals work... including humans! Did you know that horses cant throw up? This is because the esophagus in horses has a oneway movement. Why are flamingos usually pink? Because they eat lots of shrimp! Shrimp have carotenoids in their bodies, which are natural antioxidant pigments. In her beautiful detailed illustrations, Aina Bestard presents the digestive workings of a dizzying range of vertebrate and invertebrate animals, including starfish, honey bees, cats, ducks, giraffes and spiders. Each animal illustration is printed on a semitransparent page, which can then be turned over onto a detailed diagram to show how each digestive system works. Full of amazing facts and disgusting descriptions, this is a book for both kids and adults alike. | Aina Bestard Eatopedia Hardback Book
