Hamza's Wild World

 By: Hamza Yassin  

Location: NF 590 YAS

Genre: Animal Facts


Hamza’s Wild World book is a joy from start to finish - packed to the brim with facts galore about a multitude of animals, birds, sea creatures, insects and their habits and habitats. Full of fascinating information to build up the skills of a naturalist and activities to develop awareness and skills too.

Interviews with people who work with wildlife add another dimension and expertly highlighting potential careers for the young to consider

This book is aimed at younger readers 7-12 but it feels much more - a family book or a book for young and old. As someone who works in education I cannot recommend this book enough - a great non- fiction book to dip into, share with others and learn so much from

Louise Forshaw’s illustrations add another level of fun and magic

Naturalist and wildlife cameraman Hamza Yassin regales us with animal facts in this fun read.

The book is well written and easy to dip in and out of. There is a wide variety of information, which is presented in an interesting way. Both my 5- and 10-year-old enjoyed hearing the fun facts and some of the sillier ones prompted great fits of giggles!

I was really impressed by the fact that the book has a dyslexia-friendly layout, making it a good pick for children who love animals but struggle to read.

A recommended read for animal lovers young and old.
