Children will learn how different animals communicate with each other.  Some animals send messages that can be seen, while others use their voice or another body part to make noises for others to hear.  Many animals get information about another animal through smell or other chemical signals and others communicate through touch or vibrations that another animal feels.  Animals communicate to tell each other how they feel, what they want and what they don't want or wish to avoid.   Some animals also “miscommunicate” to trick or confuse another animal.  Beautiful photographs enhance the easy to read text that is filled with interesting facts about the animal world.

Written for children ages 8 to 12.
