Find Out about Animal Tools

＂Many animals use tools in surprising ways-some use sticks, others use stones, and some can even sew! The archerfish spits water t knock down its prey, the palm cockatoo makes drumsticks to impress its mate, and the burrowing owl collects dung to attract beetles. The range of clever tools explored here will fascinate young readers with just how inventive animals can be.＂ --From book jacket.
