Animal lovers, young scientists, and budding photographers will all adore this knockout nonfiction picture book.

Did you know that orangutans are ticklish? Yes, they are—just like you and me. But be careful if you ever see a hippo yawning. It doesn’t mean he’s sleepy—it means he wants to fight. This book of gorgeous up-close animal photographs is chock-full of facts that will fascinate young animal lovers, and includes behind-the-scenes peeks at how the photographs were taken. (Because it can’t be easy to make a lion say cheese, can it?)

Steve Grubman’s first job as a photographer was in advertising. He began photographing animals years later when he was working on a Samsonite luggage campaign. The creative team wanted a photograph of an elephant standing on a piece of luggage, so Steve found an African elephant, got it into his studio, and took its picture. Since then he has photographed animals large and small for major corporations, including Paramount Pictures, Allstate, Sony, and Dell. You can visit him at grubman.com.
