Animal Feelings (The Secret Life of Animals)

By Funston, Sylvia

Publishers Summary:
Do animals cry? Do they experience love, jealousy and anger? Most animals cannot describe their feelings but they do seem to have an emotional life, even if it is a secret one. We can't tell for certain what animals are feeling, but we can learn more and more about their intriguing world by studying how they behave and comparing their actions to our own. Animal Feelings is the second title in The Secret Life of Animals series. In this fascinating book, children are introduced to animals from around the world, and to amazing new research on animal behavior. Author Sylvia Funston combines scientific theories with incredible real-life stories that show animals acting as if they are afraid or happy, ashamed or sad, cruel or kind.
