Book Synopsis Know Your Rodent by : Cigalle Hanaor
Download or read book Know Your Rodent written by Cigalle Hanaor and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that 40 per cent of all mammal species in this world are rodents. The skin of the Naked Mole Rat lacks the neurotransmitters that allow it to feel pain. The main difference between a hamster and a gerbil is that the former is nocturnal and the latter isnt. The capybara is the worlds largest rodent, weighing up to 80kg. The African pygmy mouse weighs only seven grams. KnowYour Rodent is an illustrated guide to twenty-three rodent species, which is at once fascinatingly informative and oddly humorous. Brilliantly distinctive drawings by up-and-coming illustrator Thibaud Hérem draw inspiration from such masters as Bruno Munari and Joelle Jolivet, and capture the essence of some of the weirdest and most wonderful creatures the planet has to offer. With a lightness of touch that will appeal to adults and children alike, this offbeat little volume brings together the marvels of nature and the marvels of beautiful design in a perfect little package.

Book excerpt: "Disney is so good at being good that it manifests an evil; so uniformly efficient and courteous, so dependably clean and conscientious, so unfailingly entertaining that it's unreal, and therefore is an agent of pure wickedness. . . . Disney isn't in the business of exploiting Nature so much as striving to improve upon it, constantly fine-tuning God's work." --from TEAM RODENT TEAM RODENT How Disney Devours America "Revulsion is good. Revulsion is healthy. Each of us has limits, unarticulated boundaries of taste and tolerance, and sometimes we forget where they are. Peep Land is here to remind us; a fixed compass point by which we can govern our private behavior. Because being grossed out is essential to the human experience; without a perceived depravity, we'd have nothing against which to gauge the advance or decline of culture; our art, our music, our cinema, our books. Without sleaze, the yardstick shrinks at both ends. Team Rodent doesn't believe in sleaze, however, nor in old-fashioned revulsion. Square in the middle is where it wants us all to be, dependable consumers with predictable attitudes. The message, never stated but avuncularly implied, is that America's values ought to reflect those of the Walt Disney Company, and not the other way around." BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Carl Hiaasen's Bad Monkey.

Book Synopsis How they live... Rodents by : David Withrington
Download or read book How they live... Rodents written by David Withrington and published by Primento. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 6 years old Come and discover the wonderful life of rodents! Learn about their environment, their physical features, what they eat and much more! The “How they live” collection is a must-have for children and other members of the family who are eager to learn about nature and animals while having fun. EXTRACT Rodents are a large group of mammals that occur in most parts of the world. They have a single pair of front incisor teeth that grow throughout their lives. Their teeth are covered by solid enamel at the front, with softer dentine behind which get sharpened with use. Slovenia is home to a number of small species of rodents, the biggest of which is the Alpine Marmot, a member of the squirrel family. Many rodents have adapted to living alongside humans, but they often become a nuisance. They are good at finding food, so it comes as no surprise that they cause trouble in food warehouses, our kitchens, and other food-storage areas. They are also attracted to food that can be found in the rubbish we throw away. They may contaminate food with their droppings, and infectious diseases – such as bubonic plague – are transmitted by rat fleas. Mice and rats live successfully in the proximity of man, partly due to the lack of natural predators. ABOUT THE COLLECTION The collection "How they live..." is about wild creatures and their relation to our lives and the environment. In the "How they live..." series : • How they live... bats • How they live... birds • How they live... owls • How they live... reptiles • How they live... amphibians ABOUT THE AUTHORS Ivan Esenko presents the world of nature and invites the reader to learn more about the world that we are part of. His camera is his most faithful companion and its lens particularly likes to ‘capture’ those animals that live in close quarters to man. We take them so much for granted that we no longer seem to care for them. Ivan is their voice, he has become their ‘personal’ photographer. David Withrington from Britain has spent most of his professional life working for the official agency, Natural England, where he was initially Author/Editor and latterly Senior Freshwater Adviser. He has a particular interest in birds and butterflies. He has many contacts across Europe through his voluntary work for youth and environmental conservation, including friends in Slovenia, a country which he has visited 34 times. ABOUT THE PUBLISHER Okaši is a Slovenian publisher with a vibrant programme. At every turn, nature reveals its new face and discloses a myriad of secrets. This is why we have devoted a special place to it in our publishing house. We are the creators of books that delight curious children and their parents in their discoveries of nature: in the home garden and the nearby park, but also further afield, in the fields and forests. At Okaši we keep pace with the times which is why have embarked upon several electronic editions of our books. We have added sound to these publications and hence a new dimension to the contents already there.

Book Synopsis The Rodent Order by : Rebecca Stefoff
Download or read book The Rodent Order written by Rebecca Stefoff and published by Marshall Cavendish. This book was released on 2009 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two of every five mammals on Earth are rodents, yet most people know little about this amazingly diverse order of animals. Rats and mice may be all too familiar, but what about gundis and degus? And did you know that porcupines are rodents, but rabbits are not? The Rodent Order explores the world of rodents, from prehistoric guinea pigs the size of horses to the Laotian rock rat, a "living fossil" recently found alive in the forests of Southeast Asia. The Rodent Order also examines the long relationship between people and rodents. For thousands of years, rodents have influenced human life as pests, food, pets, and carriers of disease. Today human activities are threatening the survival of some rodent species, but other rodents are flourishing-sometimes right under our noses. Book jacket.
