Sintesi dell'editore
Check out these cool critters and learn how their wacky adornments help them survive!
What do a crab waving pom-poms, a bug with a backpack of dead ants, and a mud-spattered vulture have in common? They all have wild style! Meet animals including crabs in sponge hats, caddisfly larvae wearing suits of armor, and lacewing larvae dressing up with jewelry to hide themselves from ladybug predators in this fun and fascinating book!
"Grodzicki examines how animals protect themselves from predators and thrive in their environment. The book emphasizes the 'wild' factor.... There are a wide variety of adaptations. The sponge crab is described as having a 'yucky taste'; an assassin bug 'carries a heap of dead ants' whose insides it has first sucked out; and a golden tortoise beetle larva carries a 'stinky umbrella', which includes fecal matter attached to its spine called an anal fork. The book's concept relies on the 'ick' factor. Verdict: A possible supplement to animal studies. Educators and caretakers should read the book first before sharing so that they are ready for responses to some of the more unsavory animal attributes such as the beetle's 'poop umbrella.'"
