About This Book
Reach for this book when your curious child loves a good guessing game and is starting to ask questions about the natural world. "Whose Gloves are These?" cleverly reframes animal paws, claws, and flippers as different kinds of "gloves," each perfectly suited for a job. Each section presents a photographic riddle, showing a close-up of an animal's appendage and asking the reader to guess its owner. The next page reveals the animal with a simple explanation of how its unique "gloves" help it survive. This interactive format nurtures a child's natural curiosity and builds their confidence as they learn about the amazing concept of adaptation. It’s a wonderful, playful introduction to scientific observation for preschoolers and early elementary students.
