Reach for this book when your child starts asking those relentless why and how questions about the natural world or expresses a mix of fascination and fear toward household pests.

It is a perfect choice for kids who thrive on facts and want to see the literal inner workings of an animal. Through clear photography and accessible text, the book explores the anatomy, diet, and life cycles of rats and mice.
