“What’s that word for when you pick a book that’s aimed at children and on each page you learn something that you didn’t know before? It’s called a miracle: a scientific book that stimulates those who read it and see it, making a learning experience out of a pure delight.” Miguel Esteves Cardoso, Público newspaper

“An incredible nature encyclopaedia that shows the younger ones a world that has been increasingly hidden from their eyes, and which will prompt them to jump fences into greener lands.” Pedro Miguel Silva, Deus me livro blog

“After “Outside”, which is in fact an art walk, we get the sense we perhaps made a big mistake when we swapped encyclopaedias for Google and Wikipedia. Perhaps the internet killed off an important part of our curiosity. Luckily, though, children remain faithful to asking searching and exploratory questions and they’re fortunate enough to have as special a book as this on their shelves.” Roberto Almeida, “Garatujas Fantásticas” site
