This beautifully presented science book explores the biology of reproduction, birth and early parenting in the warm-blooded class of animals that we humans belong to. Through short, concise texts and luxurious illustrations, we learn what happens when an egg is fertilised and how an embryo develops. We find out why some mammals have multiple births, whilst others only have single pregnancies. We learn how the gestation process differs in marsupials and how platypuses and echidnas breastfeed (spoiler alert, milk seeps out of their nipple-less chests!) We discover the importance of breastmilk and find out how different species look after their newborns. This book presents a refreshingly straightforward introduction to the facts of life, without being a sex-education book, per se, and also offers remarkable insights into the rich and fascinating diversity of mammal species on our planet.
