Long tail curls ... Hands grip and grab ... Meet the monkey! Brimming
with vivid photos and scientific facts, Monkeys treats middle-grade
researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of these
marvelous mammals from the Primates order. It covers zoology topics such
as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species
conservation efforts and the animals' relationships with humans
throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the
main text, while a monkey tale from Ghana adds a cross-curricular
cultural layer to the title.
