As a defensive mechanism, animals have learned how to camouflage themselves to hide from predators who might want to eat them. Some animals blend and look like leaves, while others look like sticks or rocks. Some don't hide at all because their vibrant colors are enough to scare predators off. In nature, bright patterns usually mean poisonous and other animals have learned this.

FIND OUT ABOUT ANIMAL CAMOUFLAGE is an educational book that teaches children about how animals have adapted to their environment to protect themselves. The illustrations are soft yet detailed with lines and colors. In the back of the book, there's a bit more about animal camouflage and an index to make referring back to their favorite animals easier. Camouflage is a defensive mechanism that many people don't think about so it's fascinating to see how these animals blend in so perfectly.


Final Verdict: I would recommend this to little fans of animals and their behaviors. It adds character to animals we might see daily like butterflies.
