CHAPTER ONE
Animals
The rainforest, on a hot afternoon. In the treetops, birds call to each other, and monkeys jump
from branch to branch. The air is full of brightly coloured butterflies. On the rainforest floor, a
snake watches a small frog, ready to catch it. And all around, hundreds of different kinds of
insect are working quietly, building homes and finding food. These animals - each one so
different - are all part of the animal kingdom, the most amazing group of living things in our
world.
There are millions of kinds of animal in the world, and they are different in many ways. Some
animals are smaller than a millimetre, but the biggest animal in the world, the blue whale, can
be 30 m long. Some animals live at the bottom of the sea; others live on the world's highest
mountains. Some animals live for just a day, but others can live for more than two hundred
years.
