Some believe that groundhogs come out of their holes on this day after 5 months of hibernating. It's fun to see these roly-poly creatures roam around grassy, wooded areas in late morning and afternoon. They look like beavers, badgers, and other animals but are unique in lots of ways.Groundhogs have numerous names - "woodchucks" is just one of them. Where did these names come from? Why are they still used?These animals have terrific engineering skills and are incredibly resourceful. Learn more about their summer and multi-level winter homes, what they eat, and the reason they hibernate. Find out why most farmers don't like groundhogs, even though they can be quite helpful to people and plants. This book begins with a series of tongue twisters that will make kids giggle. The entertaining pictures and text help children to appreciate nature and to recognize that animals have superpowers too.
