Brilliantly illustrated, they uncover unusual and little-known facts about plants, animals and life in the oceans, providing a fascinating introduction to the behavior, habitats and way of life of the huge variety of species found in the natural world. The book is by Ian Spellerberg and Marit McKerchar. It is full of illustrations and cartoons.
This Reptile World book is an exciting introduction to the world of reptiles. By looking at some of the more unusual, extraordinary and unexplained aspects of reptile life-how they move, track down and kill their food, care for their young-it provides a stimulating starting point for the study of this fascinating group of creatures. Reptiles are "cold-blooded" and have to rely on their surroundings to keep their bodies at the right temperature, using various ways to warm up or cool down. They are unlike mammals which use food to heat themselves internally.
