The animals featured include: Aye-aye -- A lifetime spent in rain forest trees where they curl up to sleep during the day Common Glow-worm -- Bioluminescent beetle that doesn't look like a beetle Fungi -- More closely related to animals than plants, fungi "expand" (rather than grow) over a damp night Kinkajou -- Night-roaming cousin of raccoons Mexican Red-kneed Tarantula -- Hunts at night, capturing insects, frogs, lizards and mice Net-casting spider -- A huge pair of forward-facing eyes help it to see at night Railroad worm -- The only animal that is naturally bioluminescent in the red spectrum Vampire bat -- Day-sleepers that hunt during the darkest part of the night. Intricately drawn artworks give accurate details of each animal's anatomy and behavior, and stunning photographs show how each animal hunts.

The story has to do with amazing creatures who move through walls, floors, ceilings - and solid matter - to feast. Shawna O'Conner discovers them in her bedroom and they follow her to school. As the story unfolds we discover that the creatures are escaping from a mysterious business that is new in town where Shawna's mother works -- although Shawna is initially unaware of this.Intense action and diabolical creatures that are amazingly nasty.Enjoy.
