Description: Animals Do, Too! by Etta Kaner, Marilyn Faucher Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A fun, engaging exploration of some ways animals behave just like people Publisher Description A playful look at some animals that behave just like us! "Do you like to dance?" asks the first spread of this playful nonfiction picture book. "Honeybees do, too!" responds the next. Illustrating the simple text are joyful drawings that visually connect the children enjoying a dance party to the honeybees performing their own dance in the hive. A block of more in-depth text fleshes out what the honeybees are actually doing and why: their waggle dance tells other honeybees "where to find a tasty meal." Using this same rhythmic question-and-answer style throughout, the book compares a series of childrens favorite activities to similar things that animals do. From playing tag and leapfrog (gazelles and cattle egrets) to blowing bubbles and getting piggyback rides (gray tree frogs and marmosets), there are seven activities/animals in all. And though the behaviors might look the same, while the children are playing, the animals are performing essential tasks such as finding food or caring for their young. Award-winning author Etta Kaner has created a fun, engaging exploration of some ways animals behave just like people. By highlighting connections between human and animal behaviors, she encourages children to develop compassion for other creatures and to recognize their place within the natural world. This book would make an excellent resource for early life science lessons on the characteristics of living things, especially with the expanded information in the back matter about each of the animals found in the book. The question-and-answer pattern of the text together with Marilyn Fauchers inviting, detailed illustrations work as an entertaining, interactive read-aloud as well.
