Tiny: the Stories Of Small Creatures and the Biomes they Call Home

There’s a whole universe of life happening at a scale we barely notice. In Tiny, terrarium artist and naturalist Ben Newell opens the doors to that world―introducing readers to the tiny frogs, spiders, fish, insects, and micro-creatures that bring forests, rivers, deserts, and even terrariums to life.

From jumping spiders that dance to impress a mate, to glass frogs with visible organs, to mudskippers that walk on land, and shrimp that clean their environment, this book is part science, part art, and all wonder. Through stunning macro photography and story-led exploration, Ben reveals the overlooked ecosystems thriving just below our line of sight―and shows how these small creatures play a big role in the world around us.

Whether you’re a bug-curious kid, a nature-loving adult, or a terrarium hobbyist, this is an invitation to slow down, look closer, and fall in love with the world of the very, very tiny.
