A simplified explanation of the ant world: jobs of worker ants, operation of the ant hill, social divisions of the ant colony. 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. A Reading Rainbow Selection Outstanding Science Trade Books for Children 1987 (NSTA/CBC) This Reading Rainbow book provides a beginning look at the fascinating world of ants--the variety of 'cities' they build, the job each ant carries out, and the remarkable feats they can accomplish.
