Sir David Attenborough is an English TV and radio broadcaster and a natural historian. He is best known for writing and presenting, but here are some lesser known facts you may not know about him: The sights and smells. The touch and sounds within the environment, the chance to meet and understand animals in their own environment. I overall love this series, but this one felt average. The illustrations were cute, and had the odd animal showing up, but this felt cutesy instead of natural, which I felt this particular subject warranted.

The language is age appropriate and the sentences are simple enough for that age group. I suppose it does meet its target audience requirement but it was a little disappointing to me as it seemed an extremely condensed version of such a rich life.
