Jack Myers is Professor Emeritus of Zoology at the University of Texas at Austin and the Senior Science Editor for "Highlights for Children". In How Dogs Came From Wolves And Other Explorations Of Science In Action, Professor Myers showcases twelve inherently fascinating questions arising from the world of animals. Superbly enhanced with the brilliantly executed illustrations of John Rice, the chapters comprising this outstanding title recommended for young readers ages 9 to 12 explores how fish can life in ice-cold water; how elephants talk to each other even when miles apart; whether or not dogs can see in color; how birds hatch their eggs; how dogs evolved from wolves; and so much more. With an extended bibliography for further reading and a "user friendly" index, How Dogs Came From Wolves is an ideal addition to any school or community library, and a wonderful curriculum supplement for home school instruction as well.
