Tarsiers in the Dark

By Thomas Van Eck

Book Overview

Tarsiers are primates, just like monkeys, apes, and people. However, they look different. Their huge eyes don't move, the movement is in the head alone. The head of a tarsier moves almost all the way around! Readers will love the photographs of this odd-looking creature from Southeast Asia. They'll learn more about why tarsiers are endangered and what is being done to help them.
