Through the humorous (and slightly scandalous – at least for little
ones) chapter titles, young children are drawn into this very basic
explanation of how animals bodies are shaped in different ways to
help them move, protect themselves, and attract the attention of
other animals. Chapter headings such as ‘Sticky Bums’, ‘Smelly
Bums’ and ‘Exploding Bums’ will have children giggling and wanting
to know more...Funny Bums is a great animal reference book to have
on hand for pre-school, kindergarten and infants classes...
