Publisher Description: Open wide! Compare your teeth to those of other animals and find out why teeth come in so many different shapes and sizes. What animal would you be if a few of your teeth grew so long that they stuck out of your mouth even when it was closed? What would you be if your top canine teeth grew almost all the way down to your feet? This picture book will keep you guessing as you read about how human teeth are like--and unlike--those of other animals. Praise for Bone by Bone: Comparing Animal Skeletons Children will enjoy the humorous illustrations and labeled diagrams as they predict the morphing of a human skeleton, Dr. Moreau-style, into that of various animals.--Booklist [Levine's] 'what if' questions are right on target for young learners, connecting them to the subject and extending their imaginations.--Kirkus Reviews [I]nteractive and thought-provoking.--School Library Journal |
