In 1818, Jeannette Power, a young French woman moved to Sicily and fell in love with the Mediterranean Sea and the Argonauta Argo octopus, the weirdest octopus on Earth. Amazing weird fact: The Argonaut octopus creates a delicate shell for itself which it uses to travel up and down in the water and as a safe place to raise its young. At the time, though, the only way to study a marine animal was if it was dead on land. That wasn't good enough. Jeannette wanted to study this creature alive. She had many questions: did it create its own shell, how did it reproduce, what did it eat, and did it know she was watching? She knew that careful observation was the only way to answer her questions. Follow Jeannette on her quest for answers about one of the most mysterious marine animals on Earth.

In a charming garden of London, a tiny hero emerges - Jeremy, a garden snail with a remarkable difference.

When Dr. Angus Davison, a geneticist at the University of Nottingham, learns about Jeremy, he sees an opportunity to unravel the mysteries of genetics and body symmetry.

In the early 1900s, the Przewalski's horse, nicknamed the P-horse, was almost extinct, a species that was disappearing. But in 1959, the international community came together to fight to save the species. They found a small population that came from just 12 founding horses. Could they save the P-horse and return it to the wild? Or would it go extinct.This story covers over 60 years, and a loose network of international effort from scientists across the world. After decades of breeding efforts, they finally established wild herds in the native steppes of Mongolia and China. But then an extreme winter, a dzud, struck, killing 60% of the wild herds. Is the wild just too wild? Or can scientists save this amazing species? It's hard. Difficult. Almost impossible.Photo-illustrated, this story follows the efforts to restore a vital species to the wild. The sixty-year effort has brought the P-horse from Extinct in the Wild to only Endangered. Still-it's endangered The story will continue to inspire the next generations to work to save species at risk for extinction.
