Sinopsis

Find me
if you can. . .
for if you
don’t,
I’ll be here
tomorrow . . .
you
won’t.
 
Animals and insects use camouflage to hide from hunters or to ambush prey. Stealth is a very useful technique when it comes to survival. In this fun and informative collection of poems, we meet animals such as the polar bear and the octopus; the ghost crab and the copperhead snake; and many more that use camouflage to hunt or to hide.
 
Giles Laroche’s intricate cut-paper illustrations are beautiful and life-like. Readers will have to look carefully or run the risk of a hunter sneaking up on them.
 
Back matter offers additional information about each of the nineteen animals.

An octopus changes color and shape. A flounder blends into the ocean floor. A baby deer hides in plain sight. A copperhead coiled in autumn leaves practically disappears. A polar bear looks white like snow and ice. A walking stick looks like, well, a stick.
            No matter the type of animal—sea creature, reptile, amphibian, mammal, insect, or bird—camouflage is useful. Whether an animal is the hunter or the hunted—or both—it pays to be hard to find. Turn the page to meet some animals that know how to hide . . . and see how they do it!
