Brought to you by Puffin.
Picture a city. What do you see? Traffic and towering buildings? Or maybe you imagine something a little . . . wilder?
These are the astonishing stories of the animals who are adapting to live in our urban world - and how you can help them to thrive.
From the pitter-patter of penguins in Cape Town, to the prowl of a leopard in Mumbai, the splash of a seal in Sydney, cities are home to all sorts of unexpected residents.
With beautiful storytelling, these incredible stories will fascinate every reader who has the travel bug, or is an animal fan, or has ever wondered what else exists in our big cities.
Featuring: London, Berlin, Paris, Warsaw, Calgary, New York City, Chicago, Sydney, Beijing, Tokyo, Mumbai, Singapore, Cape Town and Seoul.
