How Long Things Live: and How They Live as Long as They Do
Anthony D. Fredericks
Solid science presented in an entertaining and informative way
Filled with fascinating "did you know?" facts about extremely short- and long-lived creatures, as well as those in between
A gall midge hatches, breeds, and dies in a 3-hour period. A bowhead whale can live for 200 years, a quahog clam 400. And box huckleberries growing today sprouted some 13,000 years ago. This fact-filled science book explains how and why some 99 animals and plants--including dragonflies, horses, dogs, snakes, humans, tortoises, sequoias, and jellyfish--live as long, or as briefly, as they do.
