      Does your child love to find out what makes spiders and other top creepy crawly predators experts at hunting? They will be staggered at the variety of techniques invertebrates use to bring down their prey!Trapdoor spiders lie in wait, spitting spiders shoot out silk just like Spiderman, dragonflies twist and turn with incredible agility to catch prey on the wing and hornets are armed with deadly stingers. Different techniques and adaptations are examined in detail, showing how invertebrate predators are perfectly suited to their habitat and to the prey they pursue.Each spread has dramatic photographs and looks in detail at one invertebrate predator and focuses on its primary weapon, such as webs, venom or ambush. The prey animal shows us how it attempts to evade certain death, whether through camouflage, a speedy retreat or safety in numbers. Stat panels give readers a quick overview of how predator and prey stack up against each other.Predators are awe-inspiring. Whether they are fast, strong, armed with claws or teeth, cunning, patient or venomous, they are all masters of the art of killing their prey. Young readers will love the Predator Vs Prey series with its amazing photographs and the details about super-senses or incredible adaptations. These books also highlight the variety of life on Earth and reinforces how animals are adapted to their habitats. Suitable for readers aged 7+ who are either fascinated by wildlife or are studying natural history or animal adaptations or classification.Titles in this series:How Eagles and Other Birds AttackHow Lions and Other Mammals AttackHow Sharks and Other Fish AttackHow Snakes and Other Spiders AttackHow Spiders and Other Invertebrates Attack

      Tim Harris has been fascinated by all aspects of the natural world since a young age. After studying Norwegian glaciers at university, his quest for wildlife has seen him explore the giant dunes of the Namib Desert, climb the slopes of Popocatépetl in Mexico, camp in the Sumatran rainforest, and search the frozen Sea of Okhotsk for sea-eagles. Tim has written books about nature and the environment for both children and adults, including the award-winning Migration Hotspots: the World's Best Bird Migration Sites. Apart from birds, his special interests are bats, moths, glaciers, and the weather.
