Publisher's Synopsis
Discover some of the world's most fascinating animals: reptiles! Stunning illustrations introduce kids to these incredible creatures, from snakes and turtles to chameleons and crocodiles.
Reptiles are among the most highly specialized animals on earth: they've adapted and evolved to survive in extreme environments, and developed tricks for catching prey . . . and not becoming it. Find out a host of strange and wonderful facts about these creatures, such as why crocodiles swallow stones, how fast a Komodo dragon can run, why a group of turtle eggs hatch at the same time, and what purpose a rattlesnake's rattle serves. Along with information about their lifecycles and habitats, you'll learn how climate change poses the greatest danger ever to reptiles--and what you can do to help.
