Short and fuzzy, long and scaled: no matter their size and shape, tails aren't just hanging around, they're useful! This fun, informative book invites readers to guess the owner of nine tails, and then turn the page to see the animal and its tail in action.
"The concise information does a nice job of demonstrating the many different functions a tail can serve-a gerbil uses it for balance, while an Arctic fox uses it to stay warm. The book closes with a summarizing gatefold matching all the animals with their tails"

"Brooks's naturalistic yet affable animals will likely inspire readers to take a closer look at their own feet."
