Review:

Do you love elephants, leopards, chimps, or giraffes? In this ultimate guide readers can see and learn all about the animals that live and thrive in Africa. 

Here a just a few of the animal facts readers will learn within these pages. The red-headed agama can drop its tail to free itself from predators. A fan-fingered gecko can survive the equivalent of one hundred stings from a scorpion. The lion’s mane helps to protect it when it fights other males. When hyenas cackle, they are frightened or excited. Its cackle can sound like human laughter. 

Parents, teachers, and readers of all ages can find a favorite section within this handy guide. Animals with spots, built to survive, allies and enemies, mysteries, ancestors, and even super creatures are found inside these pages. There is so much more with fun facts in the creature bites portion of the book. Readers can also learn what they can do to help African animals in need. The back pages share a plethora of resources for more learning not to forget all the wonderful photos of these animals in action.
