A 2021 USBBY Outstanding International BookFrom the dung-beetle to the blue whale, no creature is too humble or huge for Finnish author and illustrator duo Laura Merz and Aino Jarvinen in 1,001 Creatures, a gorgeously illustrated, interactive exploration of the natural world.Under the sun, the moon, and the starsall the creatures of the world, big and small,carry out their own tasksas part of nature's great balance.Have you ever wondered how a crocodile keeps its teeth clean? Or why herons like to sit on the backs of water buffalo? What exactly does a giant blue whale eat to get so big? In 1,001 Creatures, Aino Jarvinen and Laura Merz playfully investigate the complex and awe-inspiring world of twenty-six fascinating insects, reptiles, and mammals. With fun facts and captivating illustrations, 1,001 Creatures explores the diversity of the animal world and its ecosystems. Interactive questions allow readers to take their curiosity and imagination off the page and into the real world with prompts to create their own artwork, imitate a camel's unique walk, and discover the ways in which all creatures are connected in the world. Jarvinen's humorous style and Merz's unique watercolor illustrations painted from memory using non-traditional materials, enhance the central message that we're all in this together-human, squid, and penguin alike.

Rezensionen
"Merz's playful attitude and love of creatures big and small shines through in drawings she made using unconventional tools like sticks, sponges, and spatulas. Each of the 26 animals- ranging from elephants and jellyfish to tigers and dung beetles-convey depth and motion and are just plain fun to look at.... The text is short but engaging, relating fun facts and ending with a question or prompt to encourage further play and discussion. It's a wonderful way for children to begin to learn about predator/prey relationships and how animals are adapted to their specific environments.... both a work of art and a great first encyclopedia for the youngest animal lovers."
