Description
Tasting with Your Feet: The Amazing Ways Animals Make Sense of the World by Ned Barraud is full of animal abilities that sound almost too strange to be true. Butterflies taste with their feet, bats find their way around in the dark using sound, and godwits can navigate thousands of kilometres using the Earth’s magnetic field. Through the wonderfully detailed illustrations and clear explanations, children discover how animals use their senses in ways that are very different from our own. It’s a fascinating reminder that there’s much more going on in the natural world than we can see or hear ourselves, and a great book for children who love unusual animal facts.
