The Encyclopedia of Animals Harold G. Cogger
2002
Weight: 5.2 lbs
Method of Disposal: Donating
I am getting rid of this book for the same reason I got rid of the Sharks and Whales one from earlier today. This one is only slightly more difficult to let go because it has all sorts of animals in it, including adorable baby hedgehogs and platypuses. Who ever gets to see a baby platypus in real life?! There is a polar bear on the cover, which makes my heart swoon. It is so difficult to handle when one comes to the realization that polar bears may become extinct in our lifetime due to global warming. They are such beautiful, big, strong bears.
It is really amazing to think about how many different types of life there are on the planet and, no matter how many times I look through books like this over the years, there is always one I have never heard of, seen, or imagined. I hope someone who truly loves animals and the Earth finds this book super cheap and loves it as I have or more.
