Gr 4-7–This newest addition to the “Extraordinary Animals” series features six different animals and the qualities that make their brains exceptional. Readers start off learning about octopuses, and then move to parrots, squirrels, other birds, tortoises, and whales. Each chapter uses that animal as a jumping-off point and weaves in related topics about brain science and other animals through colored feature boxes and callouts.
