It turns out that we are not the only smart creatures in this planet. Animals also have some extraordinary abilities at being clever, as I had read in The Smartest Animals on the Planet, by Dr Sally Boysen. Bees have a special dance they do to show other bees the locations of flowers, but not as fascinating as the ants who find their way home by keeping track of the number of steps they take as they search for food! I really had a great time reading this book so check it out yourself and find out more extraordinary tales of the planet’s cleverest creatures. The call number, by the way, is J591.51 in the children’s non fiction area.
