Lizards at Large

by Roxie Munro (Author)

Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade

Legless lizards. Gliding geckos. In Roxie Munro's newest journey into the animal kingdom, twenty lizards are illustrated true-to-size, moving from terrifically tiny to cool and colossal!

Some of them swim! Some of them fly! But all of these lizards are sure to leap into young conservationists' imaginations.

Whether it's familiar friends like gila monsters and komodo dragons or fun new faces like green plumed basilisks and thorny devils, Munro's vibrant colors and patterns are as eye-catching as they are accurate. This dazzling nonfiction picture book invites you to follow these creatures into their habitats and encounter them up close.

Complete with a detailed index, glossary, and further resources to engage readers' curiosity, Munro's expedition into the world of weird animals educates and entertains. With bite-sized (or skink-sized!) pieces of information and dynamic, true-to-size illustrations, budding scientists won't believe their eyes... and they won't believe how many amazing animals there are to discover.
