Eager readers are introduced to a new pest--or pet possibility?--on every page, using eye-catching photos to appeal to animal-lovers of all ages.

  • A burrowing owl not only digs into the ground, it makes rattlesnake-like noises to scare predators.

  • When threatened, a bombardier beetle can release a chemical strong enough to burn skin.
  • Binturongs smell like popcorn--but the reason why might be too gross to put on this book cover
