Hidden warmth
Under all that white fur, a polar bear's skin is actually jet black.


Small but strong
One tiny ant can lift many times its own body weight, and a whole colony can move things far too big for any single ant.


A pocket-sized start
A newborn kangaroo is smaller than a jellybean and must crawl, blind and alone, straight up into its mother's pouch.


Streak of light
A "shooting star" isn't a star at all, it's a tiny speck of rock or dust burning up as it zips through our sky.


A body built to heal
If a starfish loses an arm to a hungry predator, it can often grow a brand new one back.


Sunlight taking a bow
A rainbow appears when sunlight bends inside countless raindrops, spilling out every color that was secretly hiding in what looked like plain white light.


Ancient light
The light from a star can travel for years, even centuries, before it finally reaches your eyes on a clear night.


Ice that grows in the sky
A single hailstone can be tossed up and down inside a storm cloud again and again before it finally falls as a lump of ice.


A hundred billion neighbors
Our sun is just one of more than a hundred billion stars swirling together in our galaxy, the Milky Way.


A tiny, hungry helper
A single ladybug can eat dozens of plant-munching aphids in just one day.


Never truly gone
A resurrection plant can shrivel into a dry brown ball for years, then turn green again just hours after rain touches it.


Underground friendship
Trees in a forest can share food and warnings with each other through a hidden web of threads buried in the soil.
