Description
Shells, nests, mounds, bowers, galleries, dens, lodges, and the creative critters that build them are explored in this fascinating introduction to animal habitats. The featured creature carpenters dig, mould, spin, and weave their homes with an intricacy fascinating to budding zoologists. Children learn how these industrious animals can adjust their homes for temperature and comfort, make escape hatches, and store food for their young. Familiar industrious animals such as beavers, prairie dogs, and spiders are included alongside exotic wombats, oven birds, and naked mole rats as memorable examples of animals that adapt to and even renovate their environments. - from Amzon
