| "We want to celebrate Indigenous people in STEM to continue that tradition through – Inspiration, Connections, Innovations and Discovery. It is important to DeadlyScience to lead the way forward in celebrating what our first scientists achieved, and what our future scientists will discover in STEM." -- Publisher. |
| Summary Note |
Living things are fantastically adapted to their environments. In order to survive, animals have developed features like thick winter coats, the ability to camouflage themselves and even techniques for going without water for long stretches of time. In this book, students investigate the different types of adaptations that animals might have to help them survive and thrive in their particular environment, and then explore a range of key Australian habitats, from deserts to rainforests. |
| Target Audience |
Publisher recommends for children 8+ years. |
