In Slimy Animals, early fluent readers learn about animals such as the hagfish, fulmar, and sea cucumber that protect themselves against predators with slimy goo. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text engage young readers as they explore the unique adaptations of these slimy animals.
