Summary:
"Hummingbirds and giraffes, sharks and snails, meerkats and bees ... at first glance, these pairings may seem as different as, well, hummingbirds and giraffes, sharks and snails, meerkats and bees. But guess what? Hummingbirds and giraffes are both hummers, sharks and snails both have mouths full of thousands of sharp teeth, and meerkats and bees are both huggers. - That's just 3 of the 8 unexpected animal pairs readers will discover in this informative and entertaining book. - Each odd couple is introduced on an initial spread that has a quick fact about each animal and asks the question, "What could this odd couple have in common?" The question is answered on a second spread that includes expanded descriptions of the behavior or adaptation that the animals share. - The book's final pairing includes a diverse group of sweet-looking young humans and readers discover in what way we are like koalas. (Answer: We both have fingerprints. In fact, our fingerprints are so similar that even experts can have a hard time telling them apart!). Includes a glossary of terms."-- Provided by publisher.
