Synopsis
WINNER OF THE BLUE PETER BOOK AWARDS 2022
Discover the animal inventors who have shared their super inventing powers to make amazing things for humans in this internationally bestselling book for kids!
Humans may think they’re the ultimate inventors, but animals have been solving problems and creating ingenious designs for millions of years. From super-speed swimmers to masters of disguise, nature’s inventors have inspired some of the world’s most amazing technologies – and this book reveals their secrets.
This fascinating and fact-packed book includes:
- Brilliant animal innovations that have shaped human inventions, from shark skin swimsuits to bird-inspired bullet trains.
- Mind-blowing adaptations like gecko feet that stick without glue, butterfly wings that shimmer without pigment and termite mounds that inspired eco-friendly architecture.
- Fascinating science explained in a fun, accessible way for young readers.
- Stunning illustrations that bring the inventions to life.
Check out the snail who has invented a house that stays cool inside even in the desert and take a closer look at the eagle whose super-zoom vision has inspired the invention of the world's tiniest and most powerful cameras. Every animal – and their invention – is a marvel in this unique non-fiction blend of science, technology and wildlife.
Perfect for animal enthusiasts and budding inventors, Invented by Animals will change the way you see the natural world.

In this book you will meet the animal inventors who have shared their super inventing powers to make amazing things for humans.

Sometimes when a human inventor gets stuck, they come to the animal kingdom to see if we can help them out. In this book you will meet the creme de la creme of animal innovators who have created or are in the process of inventing things that people use every day. Meet the shark who invented a pair of swimming shorts so fast, they were banned from the Olympic games. And meet the snail who has invented a house that stays cool inside even in the desert. Humans think they invent everything, but the fact is, us animals have invented ways of solving problems, making unbelievable materials, ways of getting around and working out how to survive on our own for millions of years.
