Meerkats
by Jody Sullivan Rake
What
are meerkats? Where do they live?
What are their families like? What help do they give?
What do they eat? Where is their food?
Do you think that their food would taste really good?
Meerkats is the book you
need to read to find out about these interesting little mammals
and the mob they live in. You will be surprised at some of the
ways they are like you and your family. It has a Table of Contents
and Index to help you find information you need. A Glossary lists
words that might be new to you. There are more nonfiction aids
to help you master national science standards.
