About this product
Product Information
Some animal features are easy to see--long tails, large wings, patterned fur, or sharp beaks. But look closer--you might be surprised by what you find! A penguin's sharp beak hides a textured tongue that helps it grip fish. A red-eyed tree frog has a golden eyelid that covers its eyes so it can see predators while it sleeps. A platypus fends off predators with a venomous spur. Rhyming text and eye-catching photos offer an up-close look at lots of fascinating hidden creature features!

Reviews
"Wild animals show off adaptations that are not apparent at first, or sometimes even second, sight. If the big, bright, close-up nature photos (mostly stock) and effective use of page turns to rev up the drama don't rivet younger audiences, Park's pithy verse should do the trick. Here's a platypus, for example: 'I might look cute / with my BILL and fur. / But hidden from sight . . . // IS A VENOMOUS SPUR!' Likewise, the wonderfully named sarcastic fringehead fish has a mouth that snaps open like a folded umbrella to enormous size ('When challenged, / I won't step aside. / I'm ready to FIGHT / when I . . . // OPEN WIDE!'). Other (less terrifying) revelations include a penguin gaping to expose a tongue covered in sharp, stiff bristles; a snowy owl dangling surprisingly long legs, a squirrel-like colugo extending broad gliding membranes; a pangolin with a long pink tongue protruding from its mouth (kept in the creature's chest), and a swimming tiger's webbed toes. The author adds explanatory notes with each entry and, along with a closing invitation to readers to identify their own hidden adaptations, offers several leads to broader surveys of the topic. (This book was reviewed digitally.) High marks for presentation and showy cast alike."--starred, Kirkus Reviews, "Young readers will love the question-and-answer format of the book as they turn pages and reveal surprising features . . .This book would interest young animal lovers, and it would be a helpful tool in teaching new and lesser-known facts about the world's animals. Reviewer Rating: 4" --Children's Literature, "Page layouts are designed to first hint at the featured adaptation. When the page is turned, an intriguing body part is revealed, accompanied by an accessible explanation of how that part is used by the animal to eat, maneuver, defend, or attack."--The Horn Book Magazine
