Honeybees do a special dance to tell their hive mates where to find food. A group of ground squirrels will rush a threatening snake and throw sand in its face. Babysitter flamingos watch over hundreds of chicks while the mothers are away hunting. Whether it's to find food, protect themselves or raise their young, animals live and work together in amazing ways. Containing lots of interesting facts, activities and easy-to-do experiments, this title in the Animal Behavior series takes a resourceful approach to exploring animal life.

About the Author:
Etta Kaner is an elementary school teacher and writer for both children and educators. Her children's books have won numerous awards, including the Silver Birch Award, the Scientific American Young Readers Book Award and the Science in Society Book Award. She lives in Toronto, Ontario.
From School Library Journal:
Kindergarten-Grade 3-This look at animal social behavior is illustrated with large, well-composed watercolors. An introduction sets forth the reasons why creatures live in groups such as a matriarchy or a harem and the chapters that follow are filled with explanations and examples. Writing in an informal manner, Kaner addresses readers as "you" and uses questions to involve them in the text. Information is clearly presented in short paragraphs. In "Let's eat," the author describes how specific species, such as leafcutter ants or pelicans, work together to find food. In the next chapter, special methods animals use to protect themselves are enumerated. "Bringing up baby" discusses how various creatures keep their offspring safe and healthy. The other topics covered are animals at play (two games that teach children to cooperate are included), grooming, and migration. Not a prime source for reports, this book provides tidbits of organized information that will widen young browsers' understanding of the subject.
