Cute as an Axolotl
What's This Book About
Cats of Instagram meets National Geographic in this hilarious picture book about nature’s cutest weirdos from the author of Pink Is for Blobfish! The Internet pretty much runs on cute animal photos, but cute is so much more than clickbait kittens and insta-pups. Cute is for feathery-gilled axolotls (pronounced: ax-uh-LOT-ulz), shy pygmy hippos, poisonous blue dragons, and armored pangolins. All of these animals are cute, but they’ve also adapted remarkable ways to survive in their unique environments. With her signature blend of humor and zoological know-how, Pink Is for Blobfish author Jess Keating shows how cute animals can be more than just a pretty face in this latest installment of the World of Weird Animals.
