A highly enjoyable mix of science and humor. --Publishers Weekly, starred review
Escape into the animal kingdom in this visually stunning and clever nonfiction book about animal behavior by Caldecott Honor-winning duo Steve Jenkins and Robin Page.
In the latest eye-catching dive into the kingdom of Animalia, Steve Jenkins and Robin Page reveal the skills animals use to survive in the wild in an imaginative and humorous how-to format.
With step-by-step instructions, readers learn about specific behaviors; how to catch thousands of fish like a humpback whale or how to sew up a nest like a tailorbird. This fascinating and fun illustrated nonfiction melds science, art, biology, and the environment together in a detailed and well-researched book about animals who live and survive in our world today.
Ever wonder how a spider spins a web or a python swallows a pig?
- Animal Behavior for Kids: Discover the secrets behind animal survival, from a whale's bubble net to a tailorbird's sewn-up nest, presented as laugh-out-loud instruction manuals.
- Stunning Collage Art: Dive into vibrant, detailed illustrations from Caldecott Honor-winning duo Steve Jenkins and Robin Page that make every animal leap off the page.
- Engaging Homeschool Resource: A perfect addition to any science or biology curriculum, this book sparks curiosity about nature, adaptation, and the environment.
- Amazing Animal Facts: Learn surprising details about a huge range of creatures, including crows that use traffic to crack nuts and armadillos that leap straight into the air to escape danger.
