This picture book celebrates the behaviour of animals. Each of the events in this book is a ritual of work, play, courtship or survival - and each is taking place, at this very moment. Somewhere today: a sea otter is floating on its back for lunch; a pair of western grebes is running over the surface of a river; a chameleon is uncurling its tongue to catch lunch; an archer fish is shooting water at its prey; two bald eagles, talons locked, are plummeting through the sky; two brown hares are boxing; a spotted skunk is doing a handstand; two spectacled salamanders are hamming it up; two dung-beetles are rolling a ball across the sand; a sidewinder rattlesnake is getting sidetracked; a blue bird of paradise is showing off, upside down; and a dormouse is sleeping. Each picture is accompanied by a brief, explanatory text, giving the domocile and some of the customs of the featured creatures. Bert Kitchen's other books include "Animal Numbers" (awarded First Graphics Prize at the Bologna Book Festival), "Animal Alphabet", "Mythical Creatures", "Tenrec's Twigs", "Pig in a Barrow", "And So They Build" and "When Hunger Calls".
