A living tree is home to many different creatures. When the tree dies, a different group of animals and plants move in. A Dead Log describes the diverse kinds of insects, plants, and animals that live on and under a dead tree's bark as well as inside the log itself. A fantastic fact box tells children how to identify different insects and a special section gives tips on how to become a log detective. Concepts are explained such as:
-- camouflage
-- food webs
-- shelter
-- how fungi reproduce
-- the process of decay in a log
