Open Wide! by Dr Letizia Diamante - Display & Activity pack

Explore the most marvellous mouths of the animal kingdom, from the awesome jaws of the great white shark to the tiny teeth of the garden snail. Some animals sport tongues that are longer than their bodies, others have super-sticky spit that can speedily snare an insect snack. And animals use their mouths for lots of things other than just eating – to carry their food or their babies, to build their homes or even to climb waterfalls!

Join scientist and author Letizia Diamante to discover some of the most important animal body parts that are often overlooked, even though they’re right under our noses!
