About this title

Synopsis

In this colorful picture book, a lively cast of animals competes to decide which one has the best sight, hearing, and sense of smell. A polar bear can smell a seal from a half mile away. Snails can see around corners with eyes that are on stalks. Bats transmit messages to one another that are so high-pitched humans cannot even hear them. Readers will be astounded and amused by this introduction to the strange and amazing world of seeing, hearing, and smelling in the animal kingdom.
