Parents' Choice Silver Honors Winner

From the award-winning author of Mama Built a Little Nest comes an oh-so-clever picture book that explores the feathers, fur, skin, or hair that different animals wear!

Some animals wear feathers.
Some animals wear hair.
Some animals wear prickly spines
and roam without a care!

At first glance, a wild animal's appearance may seem simple. But there is fascinating science behind every part of an animal's physique--from its nose to its toes! Celebrated author Jennifer Ward explores different kinds of fur, feathers, skin, and scales in this nonfiction picture book that's truly like no other. From porcupines and polar bears to octopuses and owls, you'll never see animal outerwear the same way again!

Explores through illustrations and descriptive, rhyming text the feathers, fur, skin and hair of different animals and what they reveal about the science behind each animal's physique.
