El castor

Meet nature's greatest engineer! Introduce elementary kids to beavers and their lives in the wild. Built for swimming and skilled at forming dams, beavers are large rodents with strong, tree-cutting teeth. With STEM-appropriate text, kids explore the animal's appearance, behavior, and habitat alongside gorgeous photography. An end story shares a folk tale from Florida of why beavers slap their tails on water. A great nonfiction resource for student reports, animal units, and life science lessons. Included is a table of contents, index, same-page definitions, and further resources.
