About this eBook
Discover the best disguised animals on the planet!
Some animals disguise themselves to look like plants or rocks. Others disappear from view altogether as they blend in to their habitats. How do they do this?
In Animals in Disguise, learn how animals hide in plain sight and why. From avoiding predators and protecting themselves to ambushing or sneaking up on prey, each featured animal has an astonishing skill for keeping out of sight.
With different creatures from around the world, organised by classification, this book encourages the reader to seek out each creature hiding in plain sight in the full-page photograph. Younger children will enjoy looking at the photos to spot the camouflaged animals. To help find them, a second picture shows the animal clearly and all is revealed at the end of the book.
Perfect for readers aged 9 and up.
