Did you know elephants are pregnant for two years? Or that baby giraffes learn to walk in less than an hour?

What about tardigrades, microscopic water animals that can go as long as 30 years without eating or drinking? Time matters at every stage in an animal's life, whether it's moving, eating, cleaning, growing or pooping. Time Is Wild explores the concept of time through the lives of wild animals. Filled with fun facts and colorful illustrations, young readers can relate time to their own families, communities, habits and life cycles, and learn that every creature has its own perfect timeline.

Praise for Erin Silver:

★ "Enthralling...Empowers readers to understand their own human coping mechanisms, while colorful, detailed images soaked in softly muted earth tones build a base of strong general knowledge. The challenge for readers young and old will be to see who says 'ew' first! A thoroughly engaging, fact-filled book with audacious and memorable animal responses to predators. A must-have for every library."--School Library Journal on Mighty Scared: The Amazing Ways Animals Defend Themselves

Samantha Dixon is an illustrator who loves to create work that sparks curiosity in others. She continuously pursues learning about science and the natural world, which finds its way into her art. Inspired by happy memories of visiting art galleries with her grandparents, she has wanted to be an artist since she was little, so getting to draw for a living feels both right and surreal. She earned a bachelor's degree in illustration from Sheridan College, and the first book she illustrated, Running Wild: Awesome Animals in Motion by Galadriel Watson, won a 2020 Eureka! Honor Award by the California Reading Association. She is also a full-time Illustrator for a natural health company. When not creating art she likes to do puzzles, tend to her many houseplants and get lost in a good book.
