Fact Finders: Extreme Life series.
Vivid close-up photographs reveal the world of deep-sea creatures. A conversational text explains how the animals have adapted to the incredible depth and darkness of the ocean's "midnight zone." Readers will be fascinated--or terrified--by the unusual-looking fish ("On second thought, maybe you should skip this chapter. It's too scary for you"). Reading list. Glos., ind.

Fact Finders: Extreme Life series.
The life of the diligent dung beetle is on full display in this eye-opening book. The beetles' features, traits, and development are explained in breezy text, accompanied by vivid photographs and additional "Gross!" fact boxes (this book is not for the squeamish). The volume provides an informative introduction to an underappreciated insect. Reading list. Glos., ind.
