This book describes how a scorpion uses its tail to sting and paralyze
prey--or people! Short paragraphs of easy-to-read text are paired with
plenty of colorful photos to make reading engaging and accessible. The
book also includes a table of contents, fun facts, sidebars,
comprehension questions, a glossary, an index, and a list of resources
for further reading. Apex books have low reading levels (grades 2-3) but
are designed for older students, with interest levels of grades 3-7.
