Each book is packed with photographs and fun facts that explore how each covering suits the habitat, diet, survival, and life cycle of various animals in the natural world.Which animals have scales? Fish! Did you know that some birds, reptiles, and mammals can also have scales? Discover all the incredible ways scales help animals survive.
