By Lola M. Schaefer and Tymn Armstrong

This “irresistible” activity book, which teaches animal behavior while kids search for wildlife in their habitats, is “sure to enthrall animal lovers” (Booklist).
 
These thirteen deadly creatures can be difficult to spot until you’re right on top of them . . . or they’re right on top of you. Look for each animal in its environment—look closely!—and learn all the ways you could perish—or survive—depending on how smart, well-informed, and good at running away you are. From the deathstalker scorpion and the poison dart frog to wasps, alligators, and many more, young readers will gain a new appreciation for the animal kingdom, and the dangers it hides in plain sight!

Book preview

CAUTION

Like us, animals try to avoid danger. But if someone or something invades their territories or startles them, they’ll use defense mechanisms to protect themselves. In some cases, that defense is nothing more than a harsh sting. Other times, it may be venomous tentacles, barbed quills, or poison-oozing skin.

Just like in the real world, you may not see all of the animals in this book at first glance. Take a few moments. Look under leaves, in the waves, or on a mountain ledge to find all of the creatures. SOMETIMES DANGER IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU.

HOW MANY DEADLY ANIMALS ARE THERE?

Answers to the seek and find are on the last page.

Falling off a mountain with a deep, bleeding wound WILL KILL YOU! See that MOUNTAIN GOAT standing on the log? Look at those horns! They’re sharp enough to rip skin and cut
