About
the Series
It’s a jungle out there! To survive,
animals have developed many different mechanisms for protecting themselves from
predators and for fooling prey.
Animal Attack and
Defense,
which is organized based on scientific groupings,
focuses on animals with impressive and extraordinary survival techniques. Young
readers learn about why an animal has a particular defense feature – like
a skunk’s smell – how it uses it, and how that feature helps it
survive. Books in the series provide habitat and geographic location information
for all the profiled animals. Text in spreads makes the books kid-friendly, and
full-color photographs with informative captions enhance the text. The series
also features a glossary and index.
