This book tells you how different creatures find their food in the dark. They used their eyes or heat or smell or sound. The was an owl, snake, moray eel and a dolphin in the book.

My favourite part of the book is
looking at the owl because he was really funny and scary. Also the moray eels eyes were scary and made me laugh!

I would also like to say
I really really liked it. I didn't know animals could use heat to feel the temperature of animals to tell when they are near or not.
