by Gail Gibbons (Author)
Slither into the world of snakes in this new and updated edition of a classic from the #1 science writer for kids Gail Gibbons.
Did you know that out of the 3,000 species of snakes, most snakes are harmless to humans? We see evil and dangerous snakes in movies and TV all the time, but learn the truth about these fascinating creatures. This new and updated edition, vetted by an expert, includes the latest scientific information about snakes. Learn about snakes' physical characteristics, where they live, and how they give birth. Most snakes lay eggs, but some give birth to live babies! Read about how they move with no arms or legs and how they eat. Snakes hunt using camouflage, constriction, venom, and more. They swallow their prey whole, sometimes while the prey is still alive. Knowing about snakes, from the most ordinary garden variety to the most exotic constrictors and venomous species, is to admire and respect these extraordinary reptiles. Gail Gibbons "has taught more preschoolers and early readers about the world than any other children's writer-illustrator." Ms. Gibbons is the author of more than 120 acclaimed books for young readers, including the bestselling titles From Seed to Plant and Monarch Butterflies. Her many honors include the Washington Post/Children's Book Guild Nonfiction Award and the NSTA Outstanding Science Trade Book Award.Author Biography
