The Nature Kid's Guide to Lizards: A Level 2 Reader for Curious Young Kids Who Love Lizards! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798898182137)

If your child loves lizards, this is the book for them! Did you know the thorny devil has grooves in its skin that channel morning dew straight to its mouth? That the marine iguana is the only lizard on Earth that dives into the ocean for food? That the horned lizard squirts blood from its eyes up to five feet to scare off enemies?

"The Nature Kid's Guide to Lizards" takes curious kids ages 7-12 on a wild journey through some of the most bizarre and brilliant reptiles on the planet. How does a frilled-neck lizard go from invisible to terrifying in one second flat? What makes the Komodo dragon's bite so dangerous it can take down a water buffalo? Why does a blue-tongued skink flash its bright blue tongue at predators even though it's completely harmless? Your child will be reading facts out loud before they finish the first chapter.

Short, punchy sentences and jaw-dropping surprises fill every page. From gliding draco lizards soaring 25 feet between treetops, to leaf-tailed geckos so perfectly disguised that birds walk right past them, to Gila monsters storing months of survival fat in their chunky tails, every lizard in this book is stranger and more incredible than the last.

A book for kid's who search for lizards everywhere they go.

Lizards have been on Earth since the age of the dinosaurs, and they're on every continent except Antarctica. Once your child discovers just how extraordinary they really are, they'll never look at a lizard the same way again.

Thousands of young readers have explored the Nature Kids Guide series. Your child's next favorite reptile is waiting.
