Every day, animals have to find ways to feed
themselves and their young. They have to find ways to protect themselves against
enemies. They have to find ways to keep themselves alive in a world that is
always changing. Many animals manage to do these things in amazing ways. Whether
they are leaping an amazing distance, squirting a smelly substance, or singing a
special song, the animals in

all have special skills. Readers will be amazed at what these
animals can do!
This five-book series is about some of the more extreme
behaviors in the animal world. Each book is peppered with anecdotes, history,
and scientific facts about animals and how they use their special skills, such
as spitting, stinking, stinging, singing, and leaping to hide, protect their
babies, defend themselves, or forage for food.
