There's so much in the world they're curious about. Free of preconceptions and bias, children constantly ask \"Why?\" about things adults simply take for granted. They truly want to know why this is the way it is, and why that is the way it is.\n\nChildren are also curious about their own bodies. Why do I have five fingers? Why do I have two legs? How are boys and girls different? And why do lions, tigers, and even our own puppy have tails, but I don't?\n\nBears, foxes, birds, and fish all have tails. So why don't people have tails? If I had a soft, fluffy tail like a fox, I could use it as a pillow when I sleep. If I had a tail I could swish around like a cow, I could easily shoo away pesky flies and mosquitoes without a flyswatter. Tails are useful for so many things — keeping balance, carrying objects, communicating and signaling, fighting off enemies, or even just looking impressive.\n\nFor humans, who walk upright and have developed hands, the tail is a vestigial organ. This picture book begins with the delightfully odd and fascinating question: \"What if people had tails?\" With playful, mischievous imagination, it brings laughter and joy to young readers while naturally teaching them about the many different uses of animal tails.\n\nThe world is divided into two kinds of creatures — those with tails, and those without!\n\n\"I wish I had a tail too.\" A round-faced, adorable little boy sits crouched down, deep in thought. What kind of tail would be best? A fluffy fox tail? A long mouse tail? Or a powerful crocodile tail? One by one, animals with their own unique tails appear — a fox, a cow, a peacock, a mouse, a meerkat, a monkey, a crocodile, a jaguar, and more. The striking, vividly contrasting illustrations of each animal are paired with imaginative scenes of the boy picturing himself with that very tail, creating a delightful visual contrast that captures young readers' attention.\n\nAs the boy imagines tail after tail, spreading his wings of imagination, he suddenly feels a bit hard done by. He grumbles, \"Why am I the only one without a tail?\" Just then, a gorilla, an orangutan, a koala, a sloth, a chimpanzee, and a guinea pig appear, declaring that they don't have tails either! That's right — humans aren't the only ones whose tails have disappeared. The assumption that humans are somehow uniquely special comes tumbling down.\n\nThis book doesn't divide the world into humans and animals — instead, it divides it into animals with tails and animals without. It's a gentle reminder to let go of the idea that humans reign superior over animals.\n\nThe highlight of the book is a scene where the boy sits alongside his tailless companions — the gorilla, orangutan, guinea pig, and others — all glancing back at their bare bottoms with puzzled expressions. \"Let's think about this. Why don't we have tails?\" It's a moment that brings out a good chuckle, and after the laughter fades, leaves behind a subtle, hard-to-describe lingering feeling.\n\nWhy don't people have tails? What kind of tail would you like to have? What would you do with it? Why do you think that? We hope you'll enjoy this picture book together with your child — thinking, imagining, talking, and having fun along the way.","brand":"IBOOKPARK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49624286265572,"sku":"02012024991","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/9788\/6692\/files\/9788943310578.jpg?v=1786426403","url":"https:\/\/ibookpark.com\/en\/products\/%ea%bc%ac%eb%a6%ac%ea%b0%80-%ec%9e%88%ec%9c%bc%eb%a9%b4-%ec%a2%8b%ea%b2%a0%ec%96%b4-%ec%95%84%ea%b8%b0%ea%b7%b8%eb%a6%bc%ec%b1%85-%eb%82%98%eb%b9%84%ec%9e%a0","provider":"IBOOKPARK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
