Summary |
Arctic foxes have developed special adaptations that help them survive in the unwelcoming tundra. In the winter, their fur is white; in the summer, when the snow melts, they grow gray or brown fur. The furry bottoms of their feet and their large tails keep them warm all year round. Readers will enjoy discovering these and other facts about this marvelous animal. These facts enhance readers understanding of common science curriculum topics. Stunning photographs enhance the accessible text in a way that is sure to captivate young readers.
