Animals are so familiar but what makes an animal an animal?
Produced in partnership with the Natural History Museum (NHM), this
clever and clear explanation of animal classification puts your
animals in order and explains why classifying animals is important.
From whales to worms and snakes to stinkbugs, every creature ever
discovered has been identified and added to a group within the
animal kingdom. Scientists use this classification system to help
them research, discover and save species. This children's book
showcases the amazingly diverse range of animals found around the
world and the different features that help determine their place in
the animal kingdom. We see the similarities, differences and
connections between animal groups, and discover how classification
helps scientists conserve animals and their habitats. 'Odd-one-out'
examples tell of peculiar animals that don't quite fit the natural
order, such as egg-laying mammals and fish that climb trees.
Includes a zoology timeline of the people and places that have
influenced the study of animals
