Books with author Steven Savage

Introducing the topic of animal classification to young readers, this book explains which mammals can fly, which mammal uses twigs to dig termites out of their nests, and which mammals lay eggs. It is one of a series of books which gives a taste of the great variety of creatures found in each animal group and covers the key life processes set out in the science curriculum guidelines.

Discover the exciting world of the duck, from a city pond to a remote coastal bay, and explore some of the different habitats that are the duck's home. Could you tell the difference between a male and female duck? Would you recognize a duck in flight? Do you know what its nest looks like? Follow the duck's life cycle, from the hatching of a chick to finding a mate, and find out about the threats facing ducks today and how to feed them properly. This work includes an animal map, locator map, life cycle summary, and "unusual fact" boxes.
