In each book of the Our Wild World series, kids will find the real
stories behind these mysterious creatures, and how they've earned their
distinct reputations. Each begins with a brief section on reptile
families and the differences and similarities between them, such as the
differences between a snake with legs and a lizard with no legs!
Detailed information on habitat, diet, breeding, babies, socialization,
dangers and life cycles are covered, highlighted by full-colour photos
and Fun Facts throughout. Young readers will discover why alligators are
sometimes called living bulldozers. They'll also find out what happens
when a lizard loses its tail, what a rattlesnake's rattlers are made of,
and which species of turtle can close its shell up like a box.
