Look Again: Secrets of Animal Camouflage

Steve Jenkins, Robin Page, illustrated by Steve Jenkins, Robin Page

This nonfiction book examines how animals use camouflage in seven habitats, including coral reefs, kelp forests, flowers, rocky areas, and snow. Double-page scenes first challenge readers to notice animals hidden in their surroundings; after a page turn, the same creatures are isolated against white space. Brief text explains each setting and how camouflage can help an animal avoid predators or hunt prey. Close-up views identify the environmental feature used for disguise, and scale images compare animals with a human hand or body. A final visual index adds information about 36 animals.
