Inside Animal Hearts and Minds: Bears That Count, Goats That Surf, and Other True Stories of Animal Intelligence and Emotion by Jonathan Balcombe, Belinda Recio

5.0

Wow this was a brilliant I loved every second of it. It was so interesting and fascinating. I listened to the audiobook and loved the narrator voice. She brought so much life and atmosphere to the book it is definitely worth getting the audiobook if you can. It was so full of interesting and fascinating stories from elephants painting, cheeky dolphin hiding rubbish and only taking a tiny piece at a time for food. I loved all the animals who learnt to mimic there Keepers. Its a really stunning book that is obviously very well researched with such a wide variety of animals and things they have learnt. Its written style was so much fun and it flowed beautifully. It is totally a page turner as I had to finish it in one sitting as it made me feel so happy and lighthearted and had me chucking in places. I can't recommend this audiobook/book enough its definitely a must read book that I'm positive you will enjoy. I just can't wait to read more from this author. She is definitely one to watch out for.
The highest praise goes out to the author and publishers for creating this extremely interesting epic read for that feel good factor.
