About This Book

This delightful book takes a scientific look at lies people believe about various animals. The text explains how each 'lie' came to be and then presents the truth.

- "A squirrel's bite will give you rabies."
- "Snakes are slimy."
- "Bats are blind."
- "A tarantula's bite is deadly."
- "Porcupines shoot their quills."

Written by award-winning author SUSAN SUSSMAN, with striking black-and-white photos by acclaimed photographer FRED LEAVITT, each animal is featured in one or two pages filled with fascinating facts about the animal's life, habits, and much, much more.

LIES (people believe) ABOUT ANIMALS was named an "Outstanding Science Trade Book for Children" by the National Science Teachers Association.
