The Cat in the Hat, Sally, and Dick visit with nocturnal animals and
learn about their special adaptations for surviving in the dark! Along
with Thing One and Thing Two, the gang meet a host of common critters
(among them raccoons, owls, and bats), as well as more exotic creatures
(including aye-ayes, sidewinders, and kiwi birds), all of whom are
active during the night and sleep during the day. Beginning readers will
learn how eye shine makes some animals' eyes glow in the dark, how bats
can "see" in the dark using high-pitched squeaks, and much, much more!
Ideal for supporting the Common Core State Standards and a natural for
fans of the hit PBS Kids show The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About
That!, this is a great way to introduce beginning readers to science!
