Odd Bods: The World's Unusual Animals by Julie Murphy is a nonfiction book for young readers which is currently scheduled for release on March 2 2021. Long snouts, bright-red lips, pointy heads; the animal kingdom is full of critters with unique features. Learn about the incredible adaptations that help these creatures, and their odd bods, survive and thrive all around the globe! This album introduces strikingly unusual looking members of the animal kingdom from around the world.
Odd Bods is a great look at some of the unusual creatures we share the planet with. I have always loved the underdog, the oddball creatures with so ugly they are cute faces and strange abilities. This book gave me bold, full color, photographs of some of these creatures along with simple text that let readers know how that odd feature helps them survive. Sometimes as camouflage, or to help them eat or drink in their environments, and sometimes to help build a cozy home. I really liked that at the end of the book there is even more information about the featured creatures, and suggestions for further reading. I think this is a must have for young readers with a love for animals and science, including in lower grade classrooms and libraries.
