Book Synopsis
A playful exploration of how animals work to survive, now in paperback
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 third book in the Do Animals? series 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.
