|genre=Animals and Wildlife
|summary=I feel like I am being watched. A huge pair of piercing orange eyes are staring right at me, locking me into their gaze. In contrast with the hardness of the deep-amber eyes, soft grey feathers fan out into the surrounding area, intricate, detailed and beautiful. An enigma; harsh and gentle at the same time, the owl is beckoning the reader to turn the pages and take a closer look inside...

|isbn=Montgomery Tamed
|title=Tamed and Untamed: Close Encounters of the Animal Kind
|author=Sy Montgomery and Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
|rating=3.5
|genre=Animals and Wildlife
|summary=Sy Montgomery and Elizabeth Marshall-Thomas are best friends who also happen to be ''New York Times'' best-selling authors. They first bonded over their shared love of animals: shortly after meeting, Sy's pet ferret had given Liz a nasty bite, but Liz didn't seem to mind at all. ''She REALLY didn't mind being bitten by a weasel. I knew we were soul mates,'' recalls Sy. ''Tamed and Untamed'' is the resulting collaboration between the two friends as they share personal anecdotes and amazing stories about the animal world.

|title=10 Reasons to Love an Elephant
|author=Catherine Barr and Hanako Clulow
|rating=4
|genre=Animals and Wildlife
|summary=Ten reasons to love an elephant, eh? Well, personally, I've never needed ten reasons as they've always been my favourite large animal, the gentle giants of Africa and India, but it was good to find out more about them. Perhaps the most surprising fact which I discovered was that they live in herds headed by their ''grandmothers''. Female elephants and their calves stay together and the oldest female elephant is the one in charge as she knows where to find food and water - and she knows her herd. She remembers about people too.
