Synopsis :

There are animal architects, animal builders, and even animal squatters--meet them all in 3-D Close Up: Animal Homes. With four awesome pop-up cross sections, this fascinating new book gives young readers a chance to do in-depth investigations of some dazzling dwellings--in the trees, in the water, and underground--and meet the amazing animals that live inside. Kids will love exploring intricate insect cities, weaverbirds' nests, a beaver lodge, and the underground burrow of a meerkat family. Every page is bursting with engaging information, cool close-up photographs, and dramatic, highly detailed illustrations that bring the animal homes vividly to life.
