Have you ever wondered if ostriches really bury their heads under the sand when they are afraid? I am sure you have seen pictures or perhaps seen in some cartoons how this is so. Is this true or just a myth? Read this book to find out the answer and to learn more about the ostrich. In this book you will learn a lot of things about the ostrich. We all know what an ostrich looks like. They are huge birds with black feathers, a long neck and long legs. But did you know that ostriches are birds that can’t fly? Find out the reasons why. Also learn how an ostrich can balance with thin legs. Learn about what they eat, how they live, and how they take care of their young. This book will answer many questions about the ways of an ostrich. Why do both parents take turns sitting on their eggs? What are their predators? How do they protect themselves against their predators? Why are they very useful to farmers? What kinds of birds are they related to? This book also contains more than 20 colorful pictures of the ostrich in its natural habitat. These pictures will help children learn about the ostrich better.
