Odd Adaptations: Set 2
Many adaptations seem to just make sense. It’s easy to
see how these evolutionary traits help an animal stay alive and even thrive in
its native environment. Just watch a monkey hang from its tail while it’s eating
a piece of fruit, but some adaptations aren’t so easy to decipher. In this
continuation of our engrossing series, readers will dive into odd adaptations of
the insect, arachnid, crustacean, invertebrate, plant, and fungi worlds.
Especially striking facts are highlighted within the text. Each compelling topic
introduces an array of life science concepts, which makes every volume an
essential component of any elementary science collection.
• Each book,
bursting with vivid photographs, contains a wide variety of information on many
creatures
• Sidebars and graphic organizers offer further enriching
information about key concepts
• Understanding of science texts is a key
tenet of the English Language Arts Common Core
