(Weekly Reader Early Learning Library, Jan. 1, 2008)
Our leveled-reader series describes how the types of homes that different animals build reflect adaptations to their environments. Each volume looks at each type of home as a shelter from predators and weather and a place to store food and raise young. Young readers also learn how animal homes and human home fulfill similar needs and functions.
A tiny bird in each photograph leads the reader through the mountain forests and streams to view the mountain goats, pikas, bluebirds, and other animals that live in the high country.
