Amazing Animal Parts

In the animal kingdom, survival is the name of the game—and not everything is as it seems. A number of animals rely on particularly clever tricks to fool predators or prey. A baby bird mimics a poisonous caterpillar. A moth escapes bats by making sounds that interfere with the bats' echolocation. A tiny rain forest spider builds a big spider "puppet" out of bits of dead leaves, insect parts, and other items. Find out more about some of nature's most bizarre and bloodthirsty con artists and meet the scientists who are working to figure out just how they pull off their amazing tricks.

Animal parts come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. This exciting series shows young readers the incredible diversity of the animal kingdom. Each book includes easy-to-read text and vibrant photos, making it a great choice for beginning readers.
