| "Another example of animal sign is tracks," said Mom.
"You mean footprints?" asked Michael. "Like these?" "Very good," said Mom. "It looks like we found signs of a marmot!" "A what?" Michael wanted to know. "A marmot," said Mom. "They're related to woodchucks. The ones you'll see around here are yellow-bellied marmots." "See, Michael," said Dad. "We don't have to get up close to an animal to learn about it. Instead of a close encounter of the scary kind, we'll have a close encounter of the poopy kind." Everybody laughed, and Mom made a gross-out face. -from pages 11-13 |
