From snakes with heat sensors in their heads to birds that can smell, the variety of strategies that have evolved is astounding. In Camouflage, a variety of creatures, great and small, are shown fooling predators and eluding danger by blending into the background and evading detection. From zebras to tiny fungus gnats, an array of animals appears in the simple text that explains the ways in which they seek to control their fate. In Partners, the mutual, commensal, and parasitic relationships between a variety of animals is made clear in both the illustrations and the text.
