Lice (Nature's Children) (Library Edition)

By Katie Marsico

Book Overview

Discover where lice live, why they attach themselves to other animals, and how they can spread diseases.

Nature's Children series provides young readers (Ages 8-10) with fascinating information about the planet's most incredible wildlife species. Each title offers a complete picture of the animal- from birth to adulthood- and describes its place in our world, including how humans impact it and its environment. As parasites that attach themselves to humans and a variety of other unsuspecting hosts, lice are far from the most well-loved animal species on Earth. However, there is a lot to learn about these interesting creatures. They will also learn how these insects reproduce and what threats they face in nature.
