100 Endangered Species is a little book with a big ambition: to highlight 100 endangered species from around the world and the work being done to bring them back from the brink of extinction.
It began as part of the 100-Day Project on Instagram, where the author teamed up with the People’s Trust for Endangered Species to illustrate one new species every day for 100 days.
Endangered species in the book includes:

What reviewers said
“This book was so exciting and interesting to explore...a wonderful book for any child’s bookshelf. It’s amazing for helping kids from about age 6 and up to understand the importance of all the different species on the planet and the impact that we as humans are having on them and their habitats. This book has brilliant illustrations, a helpful glossary at the back, and really accessible information. It’s a super book to dip in and out of and to come back to again and again.”
“100 Endangered Species has the cute appeal of a gift book but an admirably serious purpose. Focusing on a hundred species that appear on the IUCN Red List, it aims to highlight their uniqueness, their plight and the efforts that are being made to conserve them. The graphic illustrations capture the spirit of the animals in a personal way and are accompanied by some fascinating facts that make it fun to browse through"
"This would be a super handy reference material in a classroom. Or, if you happen to reside with a tiny professor, perhaps a bedtime story.”
“A beautifully illustrated book featuring 100 endangered species that NEED our help to stop them from becoming extinct. Each entry details their habitat, where in the world they live, their threats and how endangered they are, followed by a full character description and what wildlife experts and local are trying to do to save their lives for years to come.”
“Give this book to a child and who knows, you might inspire a life-long passion for conservation."
"The illustrations in the book are stunning and the package itself the perfect gift for any child (or adult) interested in protecting and learning about these 100 species which we should be protecting and not endangering. Despite its petite size (not extent) it packs a punch and both the exterior and interior would mean it is one that would sit on my kid’s coffee table."
