The Ultimate Book of Reptiles: Your guide to the secret lives of these scaly, slithery, and spectacular creatures! (National Geographic Kids)
★★★★★
The Ultimate Book of Reptiles is a National Geographic Kids Book. It is a large book that is filled, on every page, with pictures of reptiles, some breathtaking, along with different facts about them,.
The book explores what a reptile is, what its features are, and how reptiles have been able to adapt throughout the centuries. It reveals which ones are deadly hunters, and which ones are extinct. It also covers which reptile is the largest, which one is the smallest, which one is the most venomous, along with other varied and interesting aspects of other reptiles.
Also included are pictures and facts about conservation heroes, and what we can do to help protect the creatures.
There is a Page of Contents at the beginning of the book, as well as an Index on a back page, which also lists the illustrations in boldface.
I gave the book 5 stars, as it is a fact-filled book, beginning on page one, and a book that will entice any reader, who is interested in finding out more about reptiles, to read it from cover to cover, and, maybe, to start to think about how we can help protect these creatures.
