This small-sized volume introduces children to African pouched rats—the largest rats in the world—that are trained to save lives by sniffing out land mines. Because the rats are highly intelligent, have a keen sense of smell, and are relatively inexpensive to train and care for, they are an important and effective tool in many dangerous African mine fields. Animal lovers will be fascinated to learn about an unassuming creature with such a thrilling job. This high-interest topic, combined with clear, minimal writing, a clean design, and adorable photographs will draw in even the most hesitant readers. Includes a glossary, a link to publisher-approved Web sites, and an index.
