"Does a Seal Smile? explores the meanings of body and facial expressions in wild animals and people. A funny, kid-like question ("Does a coyote smile?") is shown with a realistic scenario (coyote howling), and thoughts/facts about how animals express themselves. Next, waves, smiles, frowns, hugs, kisses, and handshakes are explored, showing how humans express what they want, think, and feel."-- Publisher.
