By Melissa Stewart

Animals and wildlife, Nature

Synthetic audio, Automated braille

Summary

¡Edición en español! Todos sabemos que hay animales que hibernan en el invierno. Pero, es momento de descubrir los animales que duermen todo el verano. Una fascinante lectura de no ficción para niños de 6 a 9 años que aman… los animales y la naturaleza, ¡y que quieren aprender sobre las diferentes especies que dormitan en verano!Spanish language edition! Everyone knows about animals that hibernate in the winter. But it's time to discover animals that sleep all summer long.A fascinating nonfiction read for 6-9-year-old kids who love animals and nature and want to learn about the different species that estivate!En todas las clases de ciencias se discute sobre los animales que hibernan durante los meses de invierno, pero pocos saben sobre los animales que practican la estivación, un sueño prolongado durante los periodos calientes o secos.La doble capa textual ayuda a los lectores a darse cuenta de las razones por las cuales los animales aletargados dormitan, ya sea porque el clima cálido amenaza el suministro de alimentos o para evitar el aumento de la temperatura corporal.Desde la mariquita hasta la salamandra, desde el pez pulmonado africano hasta el erizo del desierto, aprende sobre doce animales que estivan y sus hábitos, tanto mientras duermen como cuando están despiertos, explicado mediante un texto claro e ilustraciones elegantes en acuarela.All science classrooms discuss animals that hibernate during winter months, but few know about animals that estivate—a prolonged sleep during hot or dry periods.Dual layers of text awaken readers to the reasons estivating animals become dormant—whether it's because warm weather threatens food supply or to avoid increased body temperatures.From the ladybug to the salamander, from the lungfish to the desert hedgehog, learn about twelve estivating animals and their habits—both when sleeping and awake—explained through clear text and elegant watercolor illustrations.
