Publisher's Synopsis
This title takes readers into the lives of some amazing glowing animal and plant organisms that use the phenomena of bioluminescence, biofluorescence or ultraviolet light as part of their survival arsenal. 'Nature at Night' goes into the dark corners of forest, jungle and ocean to find organisms that use luminescence for camouflage, mating, warding off predators or attracting prey. Readers will learn about 23 organisms, their biology, what type of luminescence they use, and where and how they survive. Children will love the lenticular cover and glow-in-the-dark illustrations.
