Why do dogs sniff each other's butts? Find out the answer and spark
early readers' natural curiosity about pets with this inquiry-based
nonfiction approach to dogs.
Of course, a dog's sense of smell is better than a human. But did you
know they can smell 100 million times better? Or that their butts have
scent glands and that's why they wag their tail? Featuring nine
kid-friendly Q&As, curious elementary readers will learn about canine
behavior, body language, and communication. Engaging and sometimes funny
questions draw in even reluctant readers and research-based answers
satisfy young animal lovers' curiosity.
Simple infographics call out stats and support visual learning. A Stay
Curious! feature gives additional resources and doubles as a mini media
literacy lesson that models inquiry skills. Includes a table of
contents, glossary, and index.
