Learn about animal adaptations with a little help from Sheila Anderson's latest releases, six titles in the "Animal Adaptations" series.
Each of the titles in the series provides readers with exactly the same basic definition of an adaptation that allows readers to easily understand what an adaptation is. The photographs that accompany each page of text easily enable readers to connect with the text, as they perfectly illustrate the adaptation that is being shared for each animal habitat. Each book also contains two pages of fun facts about the animals in each habitat, as well as a glossary and an index.
