Watercolor illustrations show young readers the clever ways animals hide, including deer, snowshoe hares, trout, and other animals with protective coloration.

From animal tracks to burrows and nests, signs of animal life are easy to spot if you know where to look. Fun photography and illustrations highlight the different kinds of mammals, reptiles, and amphibians that live in the wild.

How do we love numbers? Let us count the ways: They're on street signs and bus stops, featured on phones, thermometers, chalkboards, and scales. They show the time and the date, and help us to measure distance, sizing, and so much more. This spirited picture book by beloved author-illustrator Taro Gomi will charm and inform the youngest of readers, offering them a unique—and useful—look at a key concept we count on. Plus, this is the fixed format version, which looks almost identical to the print edition.
