An illustrated guide to amazing females animals from the biologist Dr. Carly Anne York.
 
Male lions are often referred to as the kings of the jungle because they are thought to be the strongest, bravest, and fiercest animals in the world. This is a myth. In fact, it’s the lionesses that are out hunting together and taking down large animals to feed their entire pack, including the males!

In this fact-filled animal book readers will be inspired by other examples of girls getting it done. They’ll meet orca grandmothers who are in command of their pods, sex-changing clownfish, and backflipping female ants. They’ll be stunned by the female blanket octopus, who is eighty times bigger than the male of the species, and be left gobsmacked by an entirely female species of lizard!
