Follow Steve Bloom as he
travels across continents
taking photographs. Find
out how big-cat predators
survive in tough
conditions; how they
live, grow up, hunt and
have babies. Blooms
in-the-field account
makes a compelling
narrative in the same way
that the voiceover on a
natural-history
television programme is
both informative and
pacy. The photographs are
full of drama. They are
sharp and clear, and
bring the subject to life
for children. At the back
of the book there is a
brief section on how to
take photographs of
animals in the wild.
Here, children will also
find helpful tips about
taking photographs of
animals at home.
