Thank you NetGalley for the chance to read and review this ARC！Animals is the sort of book one should really like， but I found it hard to really get into。 The author picked stories， and random tidbits， but sometimes tidbits went on for too long。 I think I'd prefer a paperback rather than an ebook when it comes to this one。 Thank you NetGalley for the chance to read and review this ARC！Animals is the sort of book one should really like， but I found it hard to really get into。 The author picked stories， and random tidbits， but sometimes tidbits went on for too long。 I think I'd prefer a paperback rather than an ebook when it comes to this one。 。。。more

Animals by Hebe Uhart is a free NetGalley ebook that I read in late February。This book is indeed about animals， their South and Central American locales， superstitions， and the scientific extent of their abilities， Uhart's memories of themselves and their family， and primitive sketches。 Maybe a little too exclusive and inside-joke for my taste。 Animals by Hebe Uhart is a free NetGalley ebook that I read in late February。This book is indeed about animals， their South and Central American locales， superstitions， and the scientific extent of their abilities， Uhart's memories of themselves and their family， and primitive sketches。 Maybe a little too exclusive and inside-joke for my taste。 。。。more

Animals and birds are weird and wonderful， eccentric， full of personality and such a joy to observe！ Their quirkiness， many unusual facts and observations are the premise of this engrossing book。 The author includes many topics such as how animals interact amongst their own species， other animals and humans; the lengths they go to to survive; their incredible cleverness and their keen ability （and desire！） to learn。The author describes a love for zoology which was heightened because of a wonderf Animals and birds are weird and wonderful， eccentric， full of personality and such a joy to observe！ Their quirkiness， many unusual facts and observations are the premise of this engrossing book。 The author includes many topics such as how animals interact amongst their own species， other animals and humans; the lengths they go to to survive; their incredible cleverness and their keen ability （and desire！） to learn。The author describes a love for zoology which was heightened because of a wonderful teacher。。。if you are passionate about a subject， you want to do well and learn more。 This compendium also includes expressions and sayings relating to animals。 Many parts about this book stand out to me and include the meerkat aunt who will find scorpions for her nieces and nephews but remove the stinger for them first， which animals/birds will enter a house， the way a type of lapwing ensures intruders can't escape their nests， birds capable of tying knots， the special ability of the albino cobra and the crow which hides thousands and thousands of bits of food scattered over many kilometers and remember where they are。We don't give critters enough credit in my opinion。 As a nature person who loves nothing better than being immersed in a forest for hours， nature always astonishes me。 My weirdest sighting ever was once late at night seeing and thankfully photographing a large hedgehog snuggled against an enormous toad of the same size， licking it all over。 The toad shifted a bit but nothing more。 They sat directly below the yard light so were easy to see。 Early the next morning there was no sign of either。 I would love to know what this meant。 This book is about behaviours and odd stories like this。Animal and bird lovers will find loads to inform them in this short book。 It would also be wonderful reading for those who simply enjoy learning。 Fascinating， fascinating stuff。My sincere thank you to Archipelago and NetGalley for providing me with this fabulous book！ 。。。more

Hebe consigue， de forma completamente orgánica a su narración， la humanización de los animales y la animalización de los humanos。Sabiendo jugar con los datos， las anécdotas y sus observaciones cotidianas; nos contagia el exotismo de la naturaleza y comportamiento de los animales。 Las anécdotas delirantes de un papagayo， también lo son sobre el ornitólogo o la etóloga que visitó。También lo hace a través del refranero popular latinoamericano， donde los animales están tan presentes: "Pura espuma， c Hebe consigue， de forma completamente orgánica a su narración， la humanización de los animales y la animalización de los humanos。Sabiendo jugar con los datos， las anécdotas y sus observaciones cotidianas; nos contagia el exotismo de la naturaleza y comportamiento de los animales。 Las anécdotas delirantes de un papagayo， también lo son sobre el ornitólogo o la etóloga que visitó。También lo hace a través del refranero popular latinoamericano， donde los animales están tan presentes: "Pura espuma， como el chajá"， "Más chueco que loro a pie"。Pone en entredicho nuestra visión antropocéntrica del mundo， sirviéndose de un estilo literario lleno de humor， anécdotas ilarantes， lenguaje cotidiano y profundas reflexiones filosóficas。 。。。more

La célebre escritora argentina， en su particular manera de narrar， reúne en este libro historias donde el tema central son aves， mamíferos y reptiles。 “Animales” es un bella colección de relatos plagados de agudas observaciones sobre la naturaleza con la cuota precisa de humor y acompañados de dibujos realizados por la propia Hebe。
