　　翻開書頁，從一隻黑貓、一隻白貓開始，透過各種相似的特徵相連，黑白、彩色、條紋、斑點，一連串動物陸續呈現在讀者眼前，從簡單的形狀、顏色到複雜抽象的關聯，描繪出一個繽紛的動物世界，讓讀者發現我們身處世界的多樣性。



　　每年有 200 到 2000 種物種滅絕，作者布蘭登．溫佐（Brendan Wenzel）使用各種工具，包括彩色鉛筆、油彩、蠟筆等，並透過簡單的「Hello」橋段連結，從常見的貓科動物到令人驚艷的鯨鯊，讓所有生物生氣勃勃地躍上紙頁，令讀者讚嘆不已。



　　布蘭登．溫佐快樂、有節奏的文本以及熱情洋溢的藝術創作，鼓勵讀者欣賞大自然的無限多樣性，尋找並驚嘆自然界的相似之處。此外，本書還附有作者關於保護野生動物的後記，詳列書中出現的動物名單，並註記其生存狀態及瀕危物種名錄。（文 / 博客來編譯）
