Curious about Dogs

By M.K. Osborne

Book Overview

Why do dogs sniff each other''s butts? Find out the answer and spark early readers'' natural curiosity about pets with this inquiry-based nonfiction approach to dogs.

Of course, a dog''s sense of smell is better than a human. But did you know they can smell 100 million times better? Or that their butts have scent glands and that''s why they wag their tail? Featuring nine kid-friendly Q&As, curious elementary readers will learn about canine behavior, body language, and communication. Engaging and sometimes funny questions draw in even reluctant readers and research-based answers satisfy young animal lovers'' curiosity.

Simple infographics call out stats and support visual learning. A Stay Curious feature gives additional resources and doubles as a mini media literacy lesson that models inquiry skills. Includes a table of contents, glossary, and index.
