Something hammers a tree so fast it sounds like a tiny jackhammer. Chips of bark fly across the forest floor. It's a woodpecker, and it's looking for breakfast!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere's way more to woodpeckers than their famous drumming. These remarkable birds can hear insects moving under solid bark, have tongues that wrap all the way around their own skull, and carve holes that owls, squirrels, and bats use as homes long after the woodpecker moves on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"The Nature Kid's Guide to Woodpeckers\"\u003c\/strong\u003e is written for curious kids ages 7 to 12 who want to know what makes these forest builders so extraordinary. How does a woodpecker peck 20 times per second without scrambling its brain? Why do acorn woodpeckers store thousands of acorns in a single tree and share their home with their grown children for years? And how did engineers copy a woodpecker's skull to build a better bike helmet?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShort sentences and surprising facts fill every page. Your child will discover that some woodpeckers eat over 900 beetle larvae in a single day, that a pileated woodpecker carves holes so big that owls move right in, and that woodpeckers fly in a bouncy zigzag pattern that makes them almost impossible for a hawk to catch. They'll learn how a woodpecker's special eyelids snap shut like safety goggles before each peck, how rat snakes slide into nest holes to raid eggs, and how a woodpecker's two-front two-back toes lock onto bark so well it can hang completely upside down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA book for every kid who has ever heard that sound in the woods and gone looking for where it was coming from.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilt-in drills, forest secrets, and a whole book full of wild facts your child will want to share.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThousands of young readers have explored the Nature Kids Guide series.
