May Book Recommendation

Surviving: How Animals Adapt to their Environment

by Allesandro Minelli and Maria Pia Mannucci

 

This month’s book recommendation is Surviving: How Animals Adapt to their Environment, an information book with full page, National Geographic quality photographs and 1 short paragraph on each page. Each page features an animal and one of its amazing features, like how Australian frill-necked lizards have a cape around their neck that stands out to make them look larger when they are threatened and how stag beetles fight each other for territory.
This book relates to our Animal Habitat and Animal Adaptations unit in Science and features many of the animals that students chose as their research topic, like the chameleon and green sea turtle. This book and others like it are in the Animal book bins in our classroom and in the school library.
I rate this book 5 stars out of 5.
