Little books for big imaginations

Why do deer have smelly feet? What animal is the world's best jumper? When
do chickens do the cha-cha? What happens if you tickle a rat? Find out with
the KIND News Book of Critter Clues and the KIND News Book of Critter Views,
two books that are sure to be a hit with your homeschoolers!

Recently published by the nonprofit National Association for Humane and
Environmental Education (NAHEE), these pocket-sized books make reading,
learning, and natural science a blast with their kid-friendly formats and
quirky facts about animals and their behaviors. Both books can be used by
students alone or in groups, while homeschooling parents can easily
incorporate them into their lessons.

The KIND News Book of Critter Clues features fun (and tricky) clues to 30
familiar wild animals and pets. Answer keys reveal the identities of mystery
critters plus fascinating facts about their behaviors, history and habitats.
The KIND News Book of Critter Views is packed with humorous illustrations
and amazing-but true-tales from the world of animals. Information for the
books was culled from KIND (Kids In Nature's Defense) News, NAHEE's
award-winning newspaper for elementary school-age children.

The KIND News Book of Critter Clues and the KIND News Book of Critter Views
are priced at just $2.50 each. To order online, visit www.nahee.org. Checks
