Description

Behold the wild world of mammals! How does a platypus fight? Where does a marmot spend the winter? When does a camel need water? Unlock the answer to all these secrets and more in this illustrated guide to the world's most interesting mammals. Fuzzy, scaly, clawed, and finned, mammals can be found in the depths of the ocean and the heights of the mountains. Open Earth: Mammals Unlocked introduces young readers to the vastness of the world around them in an easy-to-understand interactive question and answer format. From the humble rat to the mighty mountain lion, every mammal shares three special characteristics. But the similarities aren't always as easy to identify as they seem, and sharing a habitat doesn't mean that mammals will look or act the same. Mammals Unlocked features everyday favorite animals like dogs, whales, and llamas, and some you've never heard of--the delights of the honey possum and the mysteries of the saola await! The first book in the Open Earth series is a dynamic introduction to the rest of our class and is sure to impress its readers. This comprehensive guide has all the facts a young reader needs to wow their friends, impress their teachers, and even dazzle their dog. Mammals Unlocked is a must-have for any kid who's in love with the wonderful world around them.

Author Biography:

Dia L. Michels is an award-winning science and parenting writer who has authored or edited over a dozen books for both children and adults. While her topics include science and math books for middle grade students, her passion is promoting attachment parenting and supporting breastfeeding. A popular speaker, she lectures frequently at conferences, universities, libraries, and schools around the country. The mother of three grown children, she lives in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, D.C., with five cats and a dog. She can be reached at Dia@PlatypusMedia.com. Growing up in the home of a physician, Bonnie Hofkin's first picture books and early readers were medical journals and anatomy texts. With her interest in the human body thus igniting a lifelong love of art, she first obtained a BA in commercial illustration, followed by a master's degree in medical illustration. Subsequently, she embarked on a 40+ year career as a freelance illustrator. Still going strong, her unique style, in which an eye for accuracy and visual appeal is combined with a classical look reminiscent of the great Renaissance masters, is instantly recognizable.
