Mike Barfield Competition WIN!

This week’s competition is for a colourful and comical bundle of books from the award-winning author, Mike Bar eld. Mike has been wild about animals from an early age. In his new book, The Wild Life of Animals, he uncovers the little-known but amazing adaptations, bonkers behaviour and cunning natural skills of the world’s most interesting animals. Covering creatures from all over the world, young nature enthusiasts will meet ying snakes in the rainforest, vampire squid in the ocean and meerkats in the desert!

Mike also writes the ‘A Day in the Life’ series of books, which take readers on an out of this world tour through the galaxy and beyond. In the third book in the series, A Day in the Life of an Astronaut, Mars and the Distant Stars, readers can discover the poisonous clouds of Venus, the rings of Saturn and the raging storm on Jupiter. Find out about the historic gures who pioneered space travel, the animals who ventured to space so humans could follow and the ground-breaking technology that took them there.
