Crunch munch slurp CHOMP It’s mealtime for the animals in this book Each creature has its own way of eating Some dine in ways similar to you And others definitely do not Before you go track down a snack for yourself join these hungry beasts and see the wild ways they gobble up grub
While you slurp up some soup
a butterfly gulps turtle tears Butterflies use the straw-like part on the front of their head to slurp up sweet liquids such as nectar and sap But some butterflies in the Amazon rainforest also drink turtle tears They need the salt found in the tears of yellow-spotted river turtles to stay healthy Don’t worry about the turtles though They’re not sad They cry to clean out their eyes
