(3) K-3 Illustrated by Steve Jenkins. "Sometimes an animal wants to stand out" for many reasons related to survival. Prolific animal-book authors Jenkins and Page take another look at animal adaptation as they describe why animals puff up, fan out, dance, roar, light up, and more to draw attention to themselves. Such actions are on display in Jenkins's crisp paper-collage art against white backgrounds. More information on each animal is appended. Reading list, websites.
