A book within a very, very special book that you won't find anywhere else in the world!

Here is a big book with the biggest animals and a little book with the smallest animals.
Open a tiny book and meet animals far smaller than you ever imagined. Open a big book and meet animals far larger than you ever imagined! Some animals are bigger than boats, cars, or even houses, while others are smaller than coins or walnuts.
By learning about the mysterious and unique characteristics of different animals, you will learn more about the animals that inhabit our planet.
One thing I learned while making this book is that the place children want to go the most is the zoo.
The thing is, children really like animals.


Among the two books, 『Big Animal Book Where Big Animals Live』 and 『Small Animal Book Where Small Animals Live』, it is said that the animals in the book where big animals live are noticeable for various reasons.
They attract attention by having bright and colorful skin, by having a strange and special appearance, or by acting in an unusual way.
But the animals that stand out the most are the large ones.
Dinosaurs, which are now extinct but ruled the Earth long ago, also boasted incredibly large bodies.
Although not as large as dinosaurs, surprisingly large animals still live all over the planet.
Curious about what kind of animals they are? Let's take a peek into the world of large animals that live in diverse places like forests, meadows, swamps, and mountains.
You can meet animals much larger than people, trees, boats, or houses.

Large animals need to eat a lot of food because of their large size.
So, many large animals live in areas where food is abundant.
The lush grasslands and large pastures provide excellent habitat for large herbivores such as elephants and buffalo.
The vast ocean is also a great habitat for large sea creatures such as whales.
Not only is there an abundance of food, but it is also an environment where they can swim with enormous weight and size.
Even the heaviest animals can move leisurely in water.
Now, shall we go meet the giant animals?

In the two books, “Little Animal Book Where Little Animals Live,” various animals live in nature.
Animals live in many places, from nearby homes and our country to faraway tropical regions and other countries.
There are large animals that are easy to spot, but there are also animals that are so small that you might not even notice them.
There are countless tiny animals hiding behind leaves or using camouflage, and countless tiny animals too small to be seen with the naked eye.
Imagine we have become very small.
The lizards were transformed into tiny creatures that looked like dinosaurs, and the mice were transformed into tiny creatures that looked like lions.
So what would the world look like?

Even when dinosaurs disappeared from the Earth, very small animals survived and evolved, becoming the ancestors of the animals that exist on Earth today.
Some animals have grown larger, but most have remained small, and some have even become smaller.
Living small in nature can be a huge advantage.
They can hide from predators, and because they are small, they can survive in small houses.
Large animals sometimes have a hard time finding food and may suffer from hunger if they don't get enough to eat, but small animals usually have easier access to food and can survive on just a little, so they have a better chance of survival than large animals.
Let's meet some of the small animals that are living well all over the world.
