Mücke, Maus und Maulwurf

Not everyone realizes that pill bugs have gills, rats are particularly ticklish, and herrings communicate with their tails. We often take ants, hedgehogs, and ducks for granted, yet even the most ordinary creatures in nature have the most incredible tricks up their sleeves. For example, sparrows drive away pesky parasites with toxic cigarette butts. Kestrels hunt mice by following their urine trails. And aphids are milked by ants for protection against ladybugs. This is a funny, clever, and originally illustrated children's book about animals that everyone knows but knows little about—ideal for children aged eight and up or for reading aloud and discovering together.
