Secrets of the Forest

Every forest contains a thousand secrets . . . In this charming anthology of stories readers will be guided into forests to meet the amazing animals that live there. In one story a squirrel hunts for an elusive acorn it buried earlier in the year, while another looks at an Alaskan wood frog as it freezes itself alive to survive a harsh winter. Children will be thrilled by the tale of a reindeer that gets separated from its herd and marvel at a chameleon changing color. Other stories feature elephants, wild cats, pangolins, badgers, foxes, monarch butterflies, otters, walking fish, a tree that can live for thousands of years, and even forest-dwelling penguins! At the end of each tale readers will find out more about the science that inspired the story. - Alicia Klepeis (Author) Kristen Adam (Illustrator) - 160 pages - 8.8 inches W x 10.3 inches L - Hardcover - Neon Squid - Ages 5 to 8 - 2023 - Children’s - Item #: 978-1684493111
