A shared-reading introduction to animals that glow

From ocean depths to forest and desert floors, Rose Davidson’s National Geographic Kids Co-reader introduces animals that produce or display light. The subject spans bioluminescence and biofluorescence, with examples including eels, corals, and frogs, and the text explores how and why these animals emit light. Photographs support the nonfiction material. Each spread pairs a page for an adult to read aloud with one for a child, making the book’s structure part of its introduction to beginning reading as well as animal science.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Beginning readers who are building confidence with shared read-alouds.
  • Children interested in wildlife, unusual animal colors, and natural light.
  • Adults seeking a book with alternating read-aloud text for joint reading with a child.

Book overview

You know fireflies glow in the dark, but did you know there are many other animals that make their own light? Dive deep into the ocean, soar high in the sky, and explore the forest and desert floors to discover animals that glow.

Explore the wonderful world of bioluminescence and biofluorescence in this National Geographic Kids Co-reader. Learn how and why animals emit light. Discover their incredible colors in stunning photography of eels, corals, frogs, and more.

National Geographic Kids Readers have been a hit in the beginning reader category, and this book builds upon that success with a new approach--parents and children reading together. With the same combination of careful text, brilliant photographs, and fun approach to high-interest subjects that has proved to be a winning formula with kids, National Geographic Co-readers provide one page of adult read-aloud and one page of kid read-aloud text on each spread, building toward a collaborative reading experience.
