Hector Fuller is a wumblebug. A more likeable bug you'll never find. But you'll also never find a wumblebug anywhere other than the pages of a book -- this book, to be exact. One morning Hector Fuller is playing the piano in his wumblebug hole, as content as a bug can be when his home is taken over by a hopping flea circus! Fleas are everywhere, hanging from the ceiling and bouncing off the walls. To make matters worse, Hector's allergic to fleas -- all six of his legs are itching like crazy! There's only one thing for poor Hector to do: He'll have to find a new home. On his search, Hector meets new creatures and sees amazing sights, but will he ever find a home as perfect as his snug little hole?

Slow, sleepy―and adorable. This playful and informative picture book follows the fascinating history of one of the world’s most beloved animals. 
Many find sloths cute, while some find them just plain bizarre. In The Upside-Down Book of Sloths, Elizabeth Shreeve uncovers their less-well-known evolutionary history and how they became the beloved―and unique―creatures of today. She pairs and compares the six extant modern species, like the pygmy sloth, the brown-throated sloth, and the ai, with their prehistoric counterparts, such as Thalassocnus, the tough seafaring sloth; Paramylodon, which had armor-like skin and walked on the sides of its feet; and Megatherium, which could weigh up to 8,000 pounds. She even reveals how modern sloths have adapted to hang upside down, how they learned to swim, and even how they poop! 
As entertaining as it is educational, The Upside-Down Book of Sloths offers a brilliant deep dive into sloths, their evolution, and their connections to our planet’s natural history―and future. Full-color illustrations throughout

Armadillos are a hodgepodge of different animal parts and behaviors rarely seen together--in short, they're oddballs! In this companion to The Upside-Down Book of Sloths, Elizabeth Shreeve explores the evolutionary history of armadillos and how they became the burrowing, swimming, roly-poly, armored predators of today. She pairs modern species like the adorable pink fairy armadillo, the chilling screaming hairy armadillo, and the iconic nine-banded armadillo with their ancient counterparts, such as the glyptodont, which could be as large as a car, had a turtle-like dome of armor, and even a spiked tail club! Entertaining, educational, and completely endearing, The Oddball Book of Armadillos digs deep into armadillos, their evolutionary history, and their future in our changing world.
