An Animal Community

By Bobbie Kalman

Book Overview

Using prairie dogs as an example, this entertaining book shows children that some animals live in communities, just as humans do. An illustrated cross section of a prairie dog town uses simple labels to show tunnels and rooms used by the animals for different purposes. Adorable photographs feature prairie-dog cooperation in digging tunnels, sharing food, raising pups, and staying safe. A special section teaches children about the rodent family and how prairie dogs communicate with one another. Teacher's guide available.
