A bird on the cover dressed in Sherlock Holmes clothing will give readers a “clue” as to what this book is about. In the pages that follow, 30 animals demonstrate how their superior sensory skills allow them to survive in the wild. For example, in one section we see how knife fish use electricity to protect themselves from predators. A great read for those who enjoy the spy scene and a fresh, appealing approach to life in the wild. 72 pages Ages 8-11
