Story
A disordered brain function can be the result of an unhealthy gut. The latter is caused by chemical imbalances triggered by an unhealthy diet. Chemical imbalances can disrupt how your digestive system works in absorbing the nutrients needed to boost your immunity and your brain. When this continues, the brain-gut connection will become toxic, resulting in a weak immune system and poor mental health. So, to help your kid overcome emotional and behavioral problems, you need to be mindful of their diet.

Story
Birds are highly intelligent animals, yet their intelligence is dramatically different from our own and has been little understood. As we learn more about the secrets of bird life, we are unlocking fascinating insights into memory, relationships, game theory, and the nature of intelligence itself. The Thing with Feathers explores the astonishing homing abilities of pigeons, the good deeds of fairy-wrens, the influential flocking abilities of starlings, the deft artistry of bowerbirds, the extraordinary memories of nutcrackers, and other mysteries.

Story
Feathers are an evolutionary marvel: Aerodynamic, insulating, beguiling. They date back more than 100 million years. Yet their story has never been fully told. In Feathers, biologist Thor Hanson details a sweeping natural history, as feathers have been used to fly, protect, attract, and adorn through time and place. Applying the research of paleontologists, ornithologists, biologists, engineers, and even art historians, Hanson asks: What are feathers? How did they evolve? What do they mean to us?

Story
Some people insist that culture is strictly a human feat. What are they afraid of? This book looks into three cultures of other-than-human beings in some of Earth's remaining wild places. It shows how if you're a sperm whale, a scarlet macaw, or a chimpanzee, you too experience your life with the understanding that you are an individual in a particular community. You too are who you are not by genes alone; your culture is a second form of inheritance. And your culture, too, changes and evolves.

In The Horse, journalist and equestrienne Wendy Williams brings that story brilliantly to life. Williams chronicles the 56-million-year journey of horses as she visits with experts around the world, exploring what our biological affinities and differences can tell us about the bond between horses and humans and what our longtime companions might think and feel.

Fun and educational!
This is such an entertaining audiobook! I love how the author mixes the facts with the trivia questions so the book is broken up better and doesn't just constantly keep quizzing your knowledge. It gives the book a better flow and feels far ore like an actual book with a story. I also really like the dramatic music in between the questions and answers and the narrator is very engaging and clear! I know so much more about animals. after listening to this. Some of these facts are crazy but so impressive! Definitely worth a listen to!

Sharpen your animal kingdom knowledge
I would recommend this book to you if you are into trivia or game nights and want to make sure you bag the win the next time the theme is the animal kingdom. Some of the facts are really funny and others were just incredibly surprising. The book has been divided into animal classes making it easy to follow along.

Blow your mind away
I enjoy trivia. They generally blow your mind away in addition to being interesting, and with this animal trivia, my jaws dropped a few times, I laughed and gasped and enjoyed myself thoroughly. Learn more about your favorite animals and some you probably never knew anything about! Get this interesting audiobook if you're waiting somewhere, traveling a long distance, or just want to spice up your day. Great job!
