Many animals store food in their homes. Some spiders catch food in their homes! The silk threads of a web make a sticky trap for prey. Even though each strand is as fine as a hair, a spider’s silk is as strong as steel. Books in this series describe how the homes that different animals build reflect adaptations to their environments, and how animal homes and human homes fulfill similar functions. For grades 2 and up. 24 pages, full-color photographs, paperback.
