ANIMALS DO, TOO!

HOW THEY BEHAVE JUST LIKE YOU

WRITTEN BY ETTA KANER

ILLUSTRATED BY MARILYN FAUCHER

Award-winning author Etta Kaner has created a fun, engaging exploration of some ways animals behave just like humans. Using a rhythmic question-and-answer format, the book compares seven favorite childhood activities to similar behavior found in the animal kingdom, including dancing (honeybees), playing tag (gazelles) and leapfrog (egrets) and even riding piggyback (marmosets). By highlighting connections between human and animal behaviors, the book encourages children to develop compassion for other creatures and to recognize their place within the natural world.
