Animal Teams: How Amazing Animals Work Together in the Wild
by Charlotte Milner
- Honest review in return for free access to the book via NetGalley -
Animal Teams is a wonderful little non-fiction book, hitting exactly the right mark for it's intended purpose and audience.
It covers 6 animals in detail (Common Starling, Black-Capped Squirrel Monkey, Grey Wolf, Leaf-Cutter Ant, Pacific Sardine and European Rabbit) across a number of continents. This is a wonderful text for children interested in or learning about migration, animal features, adaptations, and environments/habitats. The focus around how animals work together is also a great addition, highlighting teamwork to survive, how animal groups have hierarchies or how they care for their most vulnerable.
I particularly enjoyed the melding of both drawn environments and animals alongside inserted photographs of the animals in the art style, and the glossary of terms for children at the back of the book.
