Whales whistle, fireflies glow, and skunks spray--that's how they communicate! Find out how mammals, reptiles, birds, and other animals send messages and signals to stay safe, make friends, and care for their young. Accessible and fun K-3 level information reveals the animal world to young readers and researchers in this Pebble Explore title from the Animal Societies series.
This is a really engaging book for young readers, with great photos accompanying clear, digestible, and interesting text. It covers all the key points about how different animal species communicate with sound, touch, smell, and sight - and also has some really interesting tidbits I hadn't heard before (like the fact that gorillas hum or sing when they're eating something they really like!) Short text packed with info but very accessible. Recommend for schools, libraries, and kids who love animals.
