OverviewA fun and engaging guessing game that demonstrates how even the most unusual animal pairs can be two of a kind Hummingbirds and giraffes, sharks and snails, meerkats and bees at first glance, these pairings may seem as different as can be. But guess what? Hummingbirds and giraffes are both hummers, sharks and snails both have thousands of sharp teeth, and meerkats and bees are both huggers. Featuring eight unexpected animal pairings, this informative and entertaining book gives readers an implicit lesson in empathy, highlighting that we are all more alike than we think.
