About the Book
Do dolphins teach? Do birds build apartment buildings? Do tapirs deliver packages? You may be surprised at the answers! Animals have to work hard to survive in the wild.
From vultures that act as nature's cleanup crew, to damselfish that help grow their favorite food, this book is full of interesting, surprising, and sometimes familiar ways that animals work and behave.
Written in an interactive question-and-answer format perfect for reading out loud, this follow-up to bestsellers Do Frogs Drink Hot Chocolate? and Do Lizards Eat Ice Cream? encourages inquiry and discussion.
Silly scenarios and comic illustrations will invite readers to learn about animal adaptations and STEM in a fun and accessible way.
Animals are a lot like humans because they both work. But, unlike humans, animals never get to take a break. They never get to read a book or watch a show. They’re always on the go -- looking for food, building a home, searching for a mate, raising young, fending off predators. Even when they’re sleeping, animals are alert to the possible presence of predators. Aren’t you lucky you’re a human and not an animal?
Reviews
"...this fresh dive into animal behavior does offer amusing cartoon views of creatures ... as well as plenty of crowd-pleasing bits."
