Toco Toucans: Bright Enough to Disappear

24 pp. | Bearport | January, 2010 | Library ISBN 978-1-936087-45-7 $22.61
(4) K-3 Disappearing Acts series. What looks from afar like a bright rainforest flower might actually be a toco toucan. Suen explains, in simple, sometimes vague text, how the toucan's coloring helps it blend in with fruit- and flower-laden trees. Also touched on are what toucans eat and how their young grow. The glossy photos of vibrant-hued toucans in the trees are the volume's most appealing element. Reading list. Glos, ind.
