"Scary Creatures" is an entertaining series investigating the more grisly aspects of natural history. Why do cities attract scary creatures? Are we a threat to these creatures, or are they a threat to us? Why do we need clean water? What might be hiding in our homes? This book introduces the scary creatures that share our homes, streets and cities, and explains how human activity can both help and hinder these creatures' lives and habitats. "Scary Creatures of the City" is packed with facts written in an accessible question-and-answer format. Special x-ray pages enable readers to see how the internal structure of an animal corresponds to its external appearance. The book features startlingly realistic illustrations and impressive photographs. Informative captions, a complete glossary and an index make this title an ideal educational text.
