520    Shells, nests, mounds, bowers, galleries, dens, lodges, 
       and the creative critters that build them are explored in 
       this fascinating introduction to animal habitats. The 
       featured creature carpenters dig, mold, spin, and weave 
       their homes with an intricacy that will fascinate budding 
       zoologists. Children will learn how these industrious 
       animals can even adjust their homes for temperature and 
       comfort; make escape hatches, and store food for their 
       young. Familiar industrious animals such as beavers, 
       prairie dogs, and spiders are included alongside the more 
       exotic wombats, oven birds, and naked mole rats as 
       memorable examples of animals that adapt to their 
       environments and even renovate them. "This book describes 
       the intricate and beautiful structures that animals create,
       places to live in safely, raise young and store food."--
