In this beautiful book that’s perfect for young non-fiction fans, the carefully leveled text and full page photographs tell the story of a 24-hour period in the life of a busy ant. Readers will discover how ants work as a team to find food. They will peek underground into the ant colony’s city-like nest. And they will learn how the industrious little ant does essential work in her backyard habitat, such as dispersing seeds and making the soil crumbly, so water and air can reach the roots of trees and other plants. Perfect for building a love of non-fiction reading.
