A nonfiction picture book about the incredible power of bizarre adaptations to keep mammals alive and thriving!
In Stink Fights, Earwax, and Other Marvelous Mammal Adaptations, children learn how lemurs settle arguments and how earwax helps a whale's sense of hearing, along with a host of other deliciously strange-but-true tales! The lively conversational tone used to deliver information on the unique adaptations of many different mammals engages a child's sense of wonder while introducing the crucial concept of adaptation. A haiku poem at the beginning of the book offers a language-based entry into science details. A great choice both as a read aloud and for early readers who are curious about science.
