Summary | From New York Times bestselling author Carl Safina comes a young readers adaptation of the notable book Becoming wild that explores community, culture, and belonging through the lives of chimpanzees, macaws, and sperm whales. What do chimpanzees, macaws, and whales all have in common? Some believe that culture is strictly a human phenomenon. But that's not true! Culture is passed down from parent to child in all sorts of animal communities. It is the common ground that three very different animals -- chimpanzees, macaws, and whales -- share. Discover through the lives of chimpanzees in Uganda, scarlet macaws in Peru, and sperm whales in the Caribbean how they -- and we -- are all connected, in this wondrous journey around the globe. |
