The book explains ant anatomy and biology, with sections about life cycles, colony habits and sizes, ant-to-ant communication, diets, predators, and parasites. If that sounds dry, it’s not! The text is detailed but friendly, with art and photos to illustrate key information. Plus, the book includes several ‘junior scientists in action’ activities: mini experiments to help kids learn about the behavior of ants in their neighborhood. Ants are everywhere. This book is a terrific choice for inquisitive kids, and for anyone who might enjoy learning about ants and their significant contribution to our planet.
