Welcome to our crazy circus! A unique survey of the most weird and wonderful creatures that inhabit the land and waters of our planet.

Boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, roll up, roll up! You will hear things you have never heard before, and you will see things you have never before seen, like a frog with a handsome moustache, a butterfly that looks like a bird, a fish with its own light, or a three-eyed lizard. 

Allow our book to present to you all these and many more marvelous creatures, large and small, from all over the world. Take a seat, make yourself comfortable, turn the page, draw aside the curtain, and let the show begin!

41 plants that will literally take your breath away. Or even eat you! There are many books about Plants. This title does not show the best known, but the most weird and phantastic ones.

Welcome to this botanical garden, where human feet have not trodden for many years. Actually, one has-or rather a pair of them have. They belong to a passionate botanist who spends all his time in the company of flowers. He does not seem interested in people, as he feels himself to be a plant rather than a member of the species homo sapiens. He may seem strange-or even scary, like anything unknown-but rest assured that he is completely harmless just like his plants are . . . unless you’re a fly or a beetle, which his carnivorous plants love to eat, that is. No worries, those meat lovers might possibly snatch at your snack if you have a ham sandwich or a sausage in your bag, but that’s all.

hough some of the plants from this forgotten botanical garden look predatory at first sight, even spooky, they are still just plants that can never catch you. Enough talking, though! Keep your hats on as our tour of the botanical garden begins . . .

This sequel to Atlas of Extinct Animals maps out the fates of 40 endangered species that are on the brink of extinction due to human actions.

There are many kinds of animals and species that once walked the Earth, but didn’t survive until the present day. And you may be surprised, how many of the existing animals are about to face the same fate. This book is about the most significant creatures that might not see the light of next century. Read about them now, because the next moment, they might belong to the past.

The author Radek Malý encourages people to think about their actions. The ambitiously conceived atlas is accompanied by remarkable fullpage illustrations by Pavel Dvorský, supplemented by scientific illustrations by his wife Pavla Dvorská. This book provides both a wake-up call and hope. If we behave responsibly toward nature, these species can still be saved.

The first book in the Large Encyclopedias series presents animals that once walked the Earth but have vanished due to the actions of humankind.

The gorgeous, detailed depictions and descriptions of species and their eventual extinction serves as a reminder and a warning of how much life has already disappeared from the Earth.

As we get closer and closer to present day, we are introduced to creatures that still existed in recent years, like the Zanzibar leopard (until 1996) and the Chinese river dolphin (until 2007). And in the end, we are left with a bitter question: Which creature will next be added to this atlas?

Nature is teeming with incredible colors. But have you ever wondered how the colors green, yellow, pink, or blue might taste or smell? What could they sound like? Or what would they feel like if you touched them?

Will you be able to find all the links in each chapter? And if you are an aspiring artist, take our course at the end of the book and you’ll be able to paint as exquisitely as nature itself does!

A comprehensive guidebook for kids on proper houseplant care, featuring bold illustrations and engaging infographics. 

Houseplants can add a touch of green to any living space, and caring for them can be a relaxing and rewarding hobby. For kids interested in learning more about plant care, this comprehensive guidebook covers all the basics and more, teaching kids all about the different types of houseplants, their growth habits, and the best practices to care for them. Divided into three sections, How Not to Kill Your Plant provides all the information kids need to ensure their houseplants thrive: 

1. The Basics of Care: Learn about the essential elements of plant care, including watering, lighting, and soil.

2. Encyclopedia of houseplants: Identify and learn about common houseplants, including their ideal growing conditions and common issues to look out for.

3. Cultivation practice: Discover tips and tricks for repotting, propagation, and other plant care techniques.

Highlights include:

• A glossary of basic plant terminology (e.g., substrate, fertilizer, humidity, etc.)
• Step-by-step instructions for taking care of houseplants
• Advice on choosing the right plant
• Various problems you can expect to encounter – and ways to solve them

Images accompany the text in a fun yet logical and orderly fashion, such as this numbered list for repotting:

1. Water the plant well the day before repotting. This will make it easier to remove it from its pot.
2. Remove the plant from its pot.
3. As you carefully release the roots, remove old, excess soil from the plant.
4. Remove old, rotting roots.
5. Having selected a pot with a drainage hole and of appropriate size, wash this pot in soapy water.
6. Put a drain (e.g., a layer of expanding clay balls or pebbles) in the bottom of the pot. (Plants watered in a tray do not need a drain.)
7. Add a small layer of the new substrate.
8. Place the plant in the new pot.
9. Fill any remaining space in the pot with the new substrate.
10. Tamp the soil down gently with your fingers, ensuring that the plant is well anchored. Don’t fill the pot with soil right to the top, but to 1 cm below it – you must leave space for watering.
11. Water the plant well (unless it is a cactus or succulent – in which case wait 2 weeks before watering).
12. Your plant has been potted. Hurray!

Plant care instructions are likewise fun yet clear and actionable, such as this one for the Cactus:

• Fertilize max. 1x per month with special fertilizer for cacti.
• In spring or summer, transplant to a terracotta pot. Do not water for 2 weeks after repotting.
• Propagate by offsets.
• It needs an airy, permeable substrate, like one with sand.

Filled with clear and concise advice, this book is much more than just a practical guide. It features fresh, modern illustrations that bring the information to life, as well as engaging infographics that make the information easy to understand and remember. 

How Not to Kill Your Plant is suitable for children aged 6–9 interested in growing houseplants.

Kids of very young age will learn that people and animals are not the only ones capable of interactions, and that plants, trees, and fungi all around us can communicate in their own way as well.

Open your mind and your heart, and learn to treat the living creatures around you with the respect and reverence they deserve. They have much to teach us!

This young adult mystery horror takes us to a remote borderline village in an intentionally unspecified place and time where people still live by their own rules and still believe in old gods.

Twelve years ago, four children suddenly disappeared without trace. Now during the winter solstice, three of them returned out of nowhere as teenagers with no memory of what happened to them.

Astrid, Tom and Sonja have to unite to face the prejudice of the villagers and to find out, what happened to them and where the fourth missing child is—Astrid’s brother Max. Twelve nights after the winter solstice is the most dangerous time of the year as the border between human world and underworld is thin. And the kids—now adults—will discover that the ghosts from their nightmares are real and waiting for them.

A sequel to Atlas of Extinct Animals and Atlas of Endangered Animals, this large-format encyclopedia focuses on the world’s largest group of animals—insects.

Insects are the most diverse and abundant creatures on Earth, yet we often overlook their critical role in our ecosystem. Insectopia, the third book in the Large Encyclopedias series, invites young readers to explore the fascinating world of insects with expert entomologist Jiří Kolibac and the stunning illustrations of Pavel Dvorsky and his wife Pavla Dvorsky.

With 96 pages of engaging content and lifelike full-page illustrations, Insectopia provides an immersive journey into the realm of these tiny creatures, whose behavior, shapes, and colors surprise us with their complexity. Kids will learn about the full range of topics related to insects, including complex rituals of courtship, tender care for offspring, organization of insect states, wars over food sources, and various insect features (scents, colorful wings, sharp mandibles, etc.).

Sections include:

• Courtship and Nuptial Gifts: How male insects often present a nuptial gift to the female, who chooses the suitor with the largest or most alluring gift.

• Adapting to Island Life: How isolated islands are home to unique plants and animals, some of which undergo insular gigantism, and are threatened by introduced predators.

• Fighting for the Female: Insects often engage in contests to produce offspring with a female, with the best-performing male often winning.

• Flying Acrobats: Dragonflies are ancient predators with exceptional flying abilities.

• The Short Life of the Mayfly: Mayflies have a brief lifespan of just a few hours to a few days, during which they mate, lay eggs, and die.

• Slave-Makers, Slaves, and Warriors: Ants engage in aggressive behavior and interspecies wars.

• Courtship in the Hills: Insects gather on the tops of hills to find a mate, with males competing for the most visible spots, and this also attracts insectivorous birds and predators.
