Do you know what a ferret is? Or do you perhaps know what the rinkhals snake does when it feels threatened? The African Wildlife Quiz Book not only explores interesting facts like this but it delves into the world of our precious fauna with a variety of games to tickle everyone's fancy.
Do you know what a ferret is? Or do you perhaps know what the rinkhals snake does when it feels threatened? The African Wildlife Quiz Book not only explores interesting facts like this but it delves into the world of our precious fauna with a variety of games to tickle everyone's fancy.
The book is designed so that you can either curl up in a corner by yourself and play the fact-packed games, or your whole family can get involved and play against each other.
Not having children of my own, I commandeered our production manager's six-year-old son who helped me with a younger perspective – a good plan that would've been executed a lot faster if only he hadn't found the word search puzzles so good!
After finally making it through all the games, Alex's final consensus was “I think it's very nice. It will keep me entertained for a long time!” True and false, as well as multiple-choice questions give younger members of the family a chance to intelligently guess the correct answers and for those with a bit more grey matter, you'll still be pleasantly challenged by the questions Clive Gibson and Patrick Flood have devised.
For example, do you know what a spinneret is? “I don't believe this book!” exclaimed Alex when we found out that lions don't attack Sable antelope. But they do, and now we'll never forget it!
