Kids who want to know all about animals will find this book fascinating. What Does an Animal Eat? offers insights into two special aspects of hungry animals: how their teeth and beaks offer clues to what they eat and the food chain's role in helping to make sure there's enough for all. Illustrated with detailed drawings, the book's simple explanations lay the foundation for a deeper understanding of animal adaptation and the need for human help to protect the food chain.
