Mantis Shrimp: Master of Punching

24 pp. | ABDO | September, 2015 | Library ISBN 978-1-62403-736-8 $25.65
(4) K-3 Super SandCastle: Animal Superpowers series. The "superpowers" that make mantis shrimp and octopuses unique as well as more basic information are introduced using short sentences and eye-catching color photographs. The information amounts to a cursory glance (and there's some over-generalizing in Octopus), but the material is presented in an engaging manner and may inspire further research. An illustrated "superhero" for each animal and a quiz are appended. Glos. Review covers these Super SandCastle: Animal Superpowers titles: Mantis Shrimp and Octopus.
