Maly highlights many of the animals that have gone extinct due to human nature. It includes a lovely full page illustration showing what the animal looked like. The pictures remind me of an old fashioned 1970's illustration. It is very colorful and unique. The facing page contains an extensive look at the extinct animal, its habitat and what year it went into extinction. It is a very large book and I think it would not fit on a standard library shelf. It might have to be turned on its side. I was impressed with the research that went into each of these animals.
