About this listen

The New York Times bestseller now available for young listeners! Explore the amazing ways animals see, hear, and feel the world, with Pulitzer Prize winner Ed Yong.

Did you know that there are turtles who can track the Earth's magnetic fields? That some fish use electricity to talk to each other? Or that giant squids evolved their enormous eyeballs to look out for whales?

The world is so much BIGGER and more "immense" than we humans experience it. We can only see so many colors, we can only feel so many sensations, and there are some senses we can't access at all.

Exploring the amazing ways animals perceive the world is an excellent way to help understand the world itself. And this young listeners adaptation of the mega-bestseller An Immense World is perfect for curious kids and their families. Sure to capture young listeners' interest, it is filled with amazing animal facts.

Along the way are tons of amazing animals facts: Did you know that leopard pee smells like popcorn? That there is a special kind of shrimp whose punches are faster than a bullet? That it's important to take your dog for dedicated "smell walks?" Want to know the real reason zebras have stripes? (hint: it's not for camouflage)? Listen to this enthralling and enormously entertaining audiobook to find out!
