warn them to stay away.

Did you know that there are hundreds of different animal communications? There are animals saying: hi, go away, leave me along, get out of my territory, help me kill prey so we can share it for dinner, and be my friend.

I learned that stuff and more from reading this book. It has very good illustrations that almost look like photos because they are so realistic. It even has sidebars with more details and examples of animal communication.

I recommend this book to anyone who want to learn more about animals. It has interesting facts, and is a fun read.
