    Author Katherine Rundell
    “Book Descriptions: The world is more astonishing, more miraculous and more wonderful than our wildest imaginings.
    In this passionately persuasive and sharply funny book, Katherine Rundell tells us how and why.
    A lavishly illustrated collection of the lives of some of the Earth's most astounding animals, The Golden Mole is a chance to be awestruck and lovestruck - to reckon with the beauty of the world, its fragility, and its strangeness.
    A swift flies two million kilometres in its lifetime. That's far enough to get to the moon and back twice over - and then once more to the moon. A pangolin keeps its tongue furled in a pouch by its hip, a Greenland shark can live five hundred years, a wombat once inspired a love poem.”
