內容簡介
Ten creatures await, camouflaged in artful, full-page photographs, while playful poems offer clues about each animal's identity and whereabouts. Think you've spotted one? Lift one of ten gatefolds to find out. A full page of fascinating information accompanies each animal so readers can learn how nature's camouflage serves hunter and hunted alike. Why do fawns have spots during their first year of life? How did killdeer birds get their name? What makes a crab spider so good at ambushing its prey?

精彩書評
"This is a clever book. It opens by asking readers to imagine that they are an animal trying to avoid a predator or that they are a predator trying to sneak up on a meal. Animals use color or camouflage to protect themselves or to conceal themselves. The poems describe the animal in question and the picture shows it in its natural habitat. The challenge is to find the animal before lifting the flap to reveal the answer. Once detected, lift the flaps to see if you are right and then read more about the animals, including habitats, what it eats, and many other interesting facts. There are a variety of large and small animals—a coyote, tree frog, fawn, weasel (which changes color with the seasons), moth, killdeer, crab spider, green snake (which this reviewer did not spot), flounder, and a red spotted newt. It is fun, educational, and would lend itself to a variety of uses in a classroom—poems for anytime and especially poetry month, animals studies, habitats and more. Furthermore, it is a picture book that can be used with a wide age range of students."
