Summertime sleepers : animals that estivate

Stewart, Melissa (author.). Brannen, Sarah S., (illustrator.).

Summary: "All science classrooms discuss animals that hibernate during winter months, but few know about animals that estivate--a prolonged sleep during hot or dry periods. Dual layers of text awaken readers to the reasons estivating animals become dormant--whether it's because warm weather threatens food supply or to avoid increased body temperatures."-- From publisher's description.
