There's a whole universe of life happening at a scale we barely notice. In All the Tiny Things, terrarium artist and naturalist Ben Newell opens the door to that world-introducing readers to the tiny frogs, spiders, insects, and micro-creatures that make the forest floor, the jungle canopy, and even a terrarium come alive.
From jumping spiders that dance to impress a mate, to see-through frogs with visible organs, to the delicate architecture of moss and leaf litter, this book is part science, part art, and all wonder. With stunning macro photography and story-led exploration, Ben reveals the overlooked ecosystems thriving just below our line of sight-and explains how we can care for and learn from them.
