Explore the wild and wonderful world of animal senses with a
dynamic work of children's nonfiction. Humans experience the world
through sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. But what if you
had the compound eyes of a fly, the whiskers of a cat, or a whale's
ability to sense magnetic north? There's a whole world of
surprising senses out there, and fascinating adaptations that have
allowed animals to make use of them. We can't interpret the faint
vibration of an elephant's faraway stomp, but learning how they
keep in touch with family across the wide savannah helps us
understand that we are more alike than different. Featuring
accessible text from Emmanuelle Grundmann, inviting art from
Clemence Dupont, and informational sidebars, a glossary, an index
of animals, and a standard index, When Elephants Listen with their
Feet is a lively nonfiction book that encourages curiosity
about-and respect for-the animals with which we share our planet.

Educational neuroscience is one of the most hotly debated areas of
research and is often misrepresented with grand claims for what it
means for teaching and learning. Is each side of the brain
responsible for different types of mental activity? Can listening
to Mozart improve long-term brain function? Can neuroscience help
with reading, or student motivation? In this book, teacher,
education consultant and researcher Jon Tibke fact-checks
prevailing 'neuromyths' by shining a light on what scientific
research is truly relevant for the classroom and exploring the
current limits of our understanding. Evidence-informed and
complemented by thought-provoking practical tasks, this book will
challenge readers to think critically about the human body's most
complex organ.
