Book Review: The Wackiest, Wildest, and Weirdest Animals in the World by Jack Hanna

June 6, 2009 by Tracey 3 Comments

What is the fastest two-legged animal? Which animal weighs less than a paper clip when born? The answers to these questions and other fascinating animal facts can be found in this exciting book by Jack Hanna.

Jungle Jack’s Wackiest, Wildest, and Weirdest Animals in the World showcases one animal per page and includes vibrant, close-up pictures. Key information is given about each of the animals including what they eat, where they live and how big they get. Jack Hanna shares some of his own experiences of his interaction with many of these animals. A helpful glossary is included at the end of the book.

I appreciate that the book is written from a Christian perspective with several references to God’s creation of animals and no mention of evolution. The book is written in an easy-to-read style and is specifically geared toward children with information they would find exciting. The colorful photos add a wonderful dimension of interest to the pages.

If your child is at all interested in animals, he/she would thoroughly enjoy this book. It would be great as a read-aloud for younger children and a read-alone for older ones. This book opens the door to understanding the diversity and uniqueness of some of God’s creations.

    We've been studying dinosaurs this past week, and it bugs me how even the most innocent of books references "a hundred million years" or such. It's nice to see some books from a Christian perspective.

    When my kids were little we used to watch some of his animal videos. They were so much fun!

    I agree with the commenter above! It is very nice to see books with a Christian perspective!! 🙂
