The next in the best-selling Weird But True line features National Geographic Kids' two best topics--Weird But True and animals--together in an irresistable combination! Get ready to ooh, ahh, and awww with wacky stats, tidbits, and trivia about the many ways animals can be incredibly WEIRD! Did you know that you can take a yoga class with goats? Or that there's a pig that loves to paint? Or that slugs have green blood? The wild world of animals just got a little bit weirder in this new edition, packed with 300 facts and photos to encourage curiosity and keep kids entertained, amazed, and laughing for hours! Review: Best Animal Fact Book for 3rd–5th Graders—Prepare for Kids to Fight Over It - This is hands-down one of the BEST books you can get for 3rd–5th graders. My students were absolutely obsessed with Weird But True! Animals. I’m talking full-on “who gets it first?” negotiations, rock–paper–scissors battles, and kids trying to hide it in their desks so no one else could steal their turn. The facts are hilarious, gross, surprising, and totally perfect for this age group—slugs with green blood, pigs that paint, goat yoga… the kind of stuff that makes kids burst out with “Did you KNOW…?” every five seconds. The photos are bright and engaging, and the bite-sized facts make it ideal for reluctant readers too. It’s great for morning meeting shares, fast finishers, classroom libraries, car rides, or any kid who loves animals (or weirdness). Just a heads-up: if you’re buying this for a classroom or household with multiple kids, you might want to grab more than one. Trust me—they will argue over it.

Great book!
My 10-year-old loves these books. It was a great surprise that I gave him for a long flight. The size is perfect to easily fit in his backpack. He finds these books fascinating, and I love that he’s filling his mind with real facts/trivia rather than just Pokémon. Highly recommend.

A great read for young children
My boy had this for Christmas and didn’t look at it for a while. He started to read it however and has enjoyed telling me about the interesting things he’s read about. He’s also taken it to school to show his teacher.
