This book is about the different type of ants there are in this world. It gives basic definitions of all the different types of ants and what the different types of ants jobs and duties are. It talks about how they live, how they eat, how they protect themselves, and what they live in as well. (

Did you know that ants have jobs? Ants may not look like they are doing anything important, but each ant that lives in a hill has a special job, whether it is cleaning the nest, digging new tunnels or gathering food. And in each ant city there is a queen ant who is busy laying eggs.

In this popular Stage 2 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science book, Arthur Dorros explores the fascinating and complex ways in which these industrious insects work together to keep their ant cities alive.
