It's not only humans who can build incredible structures: around
the world, mammals, birds and insects can be found building
incredible things. From big beaver dams to tiny caddisfly cases,
this beautifully illustrated picture book explores each animal's
incredible home and uncovers the reasons why they build. Featuring
26 creatures from around the world, each amazing animal architect
tells its own 'micro story' about its impressive architectural
skills in this delightfully unique wildlife book. Among the amazing
builders you'll meet: Ovenbirds, who carry clumps of mud up into
the trees to make their nest Darwin's bark spiders, who build webs
stretching out as far as three buses, end-to-end Moles, who use
their spade-like paws to dig extensive networks of tunnels with
nesting spaces and storerooms where they keep earthworms to snack
on later Polar bear mothers, who make their dens under the snow to
stay in for five long months, nursing their cubs and eating nothing
themselves Through lyrical text and entrancing edge-to-edge
illustrations, admire the spectacular ingenuity of these animal
architects.
