And Other Questions Kids Ask About Insects and Other Crawly Things "...Its attractive formát and accessible text should attract browsers. In a series of fifty questions and answers, the authors describe unique behavior patterns and/or special physical characteristics of three dozen invertebrates Each section (most are two pages) deals with a different topic, but all involve how animals obtain food, their survival mechanisms and defense tactics, methods of locomotion, and reproductive cycles. Only common names are given, but important scientific terms are included and explained. There are clear line drawings of the animals described and a detailed index. The text is accurate and easy to understand-" -School Library Journal Vissza
