The Naked Mole Rat is exactly what it sounds like - it's a species of rat belonging to the order of rodents, and it is called "naked" because it has very little hair, leaving its skin totally exposed. This animal is also called by other names, such as Sand Puppy and Desert Mole Rat. If you've seen newly born puppies, then you know that they somewhat look like a mouse or a rat, which is why it's called a Sand Puppy. The sand part refers to the type of place they prefer to live in. Its other name, Desert Mole Rat, is easier to understand. Of course, they can be found in deserts, and the very nature of the animal called a mole is that they live underground - just like Naked Mole Rats. This animal is therefore very interesting because of its looks and its overall characteristics. Wouldn't you like to know it better? Read on and you will find out how amazing Naked Mole Rats are.

A fluffy, sparkly, princess-y color. But it's so much more. Sure, pink is the color of princesses and bubblegum, but it's also the color of monster slugs and poisonous insects. Not to mention ultra-intelligent dolphins, naked mole rats and bizarre, bloated blobfish. Isn't it about time to rethink pink? Slip on your rose-colored glasses and take a walk on the wild side with zoologist Jess Keating, whose other books in the World of Weird Animals series include What Makes a Monster? and Cute as an Axolotl.

Can Kit’s super-weird superpower save her world? Twelve-year-old kit (with a small k) likes shopping at the flea market with her best friend, Clem, roller-skating, climbing to the roof to look at the stars, and volunteering at an animal shelter. Until suddenly she has a really big, really strange secret that makes life more complicated than she’s prepared for: Sometimes, without warning, she turns into a tiny naked mole rat. It first happened as kit watched Clem fall and get hurt during a performance with her acrobatic-troupe family on TV. Since then, the transformations keep coming. Kit can’t tell Clem, because Clem hasn’t been herself after the accident. She’s mad and gloomy and keeping a secret of her own: the real reason she fell. Months later, kit and Clem still haven’t figured out how to deal with all the ways they have changed—both inside and out. Somehow, kit has to save the day. But she’s no hero, and turning into a naked mole rat isn’t a superpower. Or is it?
