Summary
Take a tour of 20 unforgettable animal homes: unearth polar bear dens deep beneath the Arctic snow, soar above eagle nests as big as cars and marvel at the remoras that make themselves comfortable on the ocean's deadliest predators.
Finding Home is a celebration of animals and their drive to survive no matter the odds – finding shelter in every nook and cranny on Earth, from the obvious to the unusual. With rich, vivid non-fiction storytelling, this is an essential collection for anyone fascinated by animals and the wild ways they live.
A stunning sequel from Mike Unwin and Jenni Desmond, the internationally bestselling duo behind Migration.

Critic reviews
A huge amount of fascinating information is conveyed as much by the stunning illustrations as by the succinct, informative text. This is a glorious book.
Finding Home is a book to return to, to share and to savour.
...a lovely splash of the natural world ... a library necessity and very much welcomed by the young reader beginning to go beyond the superficial with animals.
Paired with gorgeous watercolor illustrations, entries about each animal provide unique insight into their means of survival. A strong addition wherever animal and ecology books are popular.
Graceful and accurately detailed ... Natural engineering at its most astonishing.
Mike Unwin and illustrator Jenni Desmond ... know just how to make children’s precious imaginations soar. (Best Children's Books of 2018)
This non-fiction picture book is a beautifully illustrated, fact-filled goldmine
Each double-page spread summons an outstanding example of migration. We’ve seen many of them before, such as the epic flights of arctic terns and wandering albatross, but others are less well known
Desmond’s art, created with watercolour, acrylic, ink, pencil, and pencil crayon, incorporates a paragraph of additional information about each species. It is her images that make this oversize album stand out
