Publisher's Synopsis
This collection of fun and educational projects for young experimenters deals with the characteristics and behaviour of living creatures. Students learn to care for a wide assortment of animals while they study such topics as anatomy, growth, hibernation, life cycles, sensory perception, and reproduction. By observing harmless insects, fish, frogs, turtles, birds, and even themselves, readers discover how important an understanding of biology is to sustaining a healthy overall environment for all animals.
