Publisher's Synopsis
Part of a new series for young readers, this text brings information to life through the use of clear, simple text, colourful illustrations and suggested learning activities. "Jungle Animals" gives a fascinating insight into the unusual and varied creatures that inhabit the Earth's tropical forests. It explains why jungle birds are so brightly coloured, how insects and reptiles use camouflage to protect themselves, and how the speed and stealth of tigers helps them to survive. There are animal masks and a bird kite to make - and even tips on growing a miniature jungle at home. Other titles in the series include "Submarines", "Ballet", "Castles", "Helicopters, "Dinosaurs", "Gymnastics", "Out in Space", "Horses and Ponies" and "Jet Airliners".
