The book explores the main functions of hair and fur--including camouflage, warmth, and attracting a mate--and more specific functions of hair such as eyebrows and whiskers. With interesting facts, engaging writing, cartoon bubbles, and plenty of photographs, this will be enthusiastically received by young scientists. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos.
