Animals in their natural state illustrates a fundamental principle of nature

This book with beautiful pictures and a small amount of text is ideal for young children. The pictures illustrate the animals in the wild and how they find shelter and blend into the surroundings. Both predators and prey appear in the pictures, demonstrating that both sides of the food chain rely on deception in order to increase their chances for survival. A good science textbook for children in late elementary school, it uses the animals in their natural surroundings to demonstrate a fundamental principle of nature.
