The Wildlife of Star Wars by Terryl Whitlatch
5.0
Summer 2019:
A random Half Price Book find, this book is an absolute gem. The first thing you can't help but notice is that the whole front and back of the book are a textured hard cover, made to feel like the scales of some great creature. On the inside of the front cover and stretching all the way to the inside of the back cover is a size guide ranking all the animals together, as well, which is amazing.
I absolutely picked it up for the Naboo Sections (breaking down individually ecosystems and animals in Theedside, The Abyss, and The Gungan Swamp), but I was blown away by every part of this book.
The art is staggering gorgeous, with black and white sketches and color sketches side by sides. There are usually adorable baby and adolescent versions of all the creatures. There are even several side-by-sides where you can see the anatomical structure of the creatures as well. I will enjoy having this as a reference on my shelf going forward.
