Tilbury House,U.S. Dont Mess with Me
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Striking photographs and informative text introduce venomous ocean-dwellers…fast facts about the 28 different species described in this tempting title…Most spreads include a boxed text headed "How Nature Works," which may describe open scientific questions, settled theories, or applications. Erickson doesn't pander to his readers: He uses appropriate terminology. Martinez's clearly captioned photographs show the creatures in their habitats; there are also diagrams and microscope images. Colorful pages and varied design add interest. Though the text in this entry in an admirable series may be challenging for young readers, the subject has guaranteed kid appeal. (timeline, further resources, glossary)" -- Kirkus Reviews"An eye-catching and pleasingly gross introduction to venomous sea creatures, with extremely helpful back matter." -- Sheri Reda, Wilmette Public Library, IL - School Library Journal"I like that the author explains the difference between poisonous and venomous sea creatures. I also like that they point out that some are invasive species, so you don't want them in your aquarium or released into the sea. I recommend this non-fiction book for classroom libraries, school libraries, and public libraries everywhere." -- Chat with Vera

Abrams How Old Is Mr. Tortoise
Book SynopsisTrade Review**STARRED REVIEW** "'HOORAY, CAKE!' says Mr. Tortoise. And hooray for Petty and Chan, whose comic hearts beat as one in this impeccably paced story told in graphic novel panels. With deadpan dialogue and endearingly goofy character-focused art, they’ve created a funny and loving salute to friendship, critical thinking, longevity, and cake." * Publishers Weekly *Striking the right balance between joyful irreverence and absurd, quirky humor, this provides obvious opportunities both in storytime and classrooms, as the animal pals bring liveliness to a stealthy math lesson. Layout is used effectively, with initial panels that provide structure, then alternate with full spreads that emphasize the humor and whimsy of the story. * The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books *Mr. Tortoise’s emotions, which range from excited to thoughtful to confused to triumphant, dance across his face from panel to panel, and his friends are vibrant with enthusiasm. . .Anyone who’s ever had to wait for a treat will empathize. * The Horn Book Magazine *

Texas A & M University Press The Wild Lives of Reptiles and Amphibians: A
Book SynopsisWhether they're considered cool or creepy, reptiles and amphibians spark curiosity in most people who come across them. This introductory guide-the book that author Michael A. Smith says he 'would have wanted at age thirteen or fourteen'-offers an educational and inspirational starting point to discovering reptiles and amphibians in their natural habitats.The Wild Lives of Reptiles and Amphibians introduces readers to the exciting native species they can observe on a family nature trip or a walk through the local park. Smith takes readers through creeks, rivers, and bottomland forests and across woods, deserts, and plains, profiling the herps to be found along the way with vivid photographs and helpful descriptions. Species included focus on the variety of herps found in the field - such as the American bullfrog, the eel-like amphiuma, the western diamond-backed rattlesnake, and the ornate box turtle - instead of the typical zoo species. Along the way, readers learn about the lifecycle of a frog, the secret to slithering, and how a turtle is able to pull its head completely into its shell. Within these stories, readers learn how herps hunt, move, defend themselves, find mates, and adapt to the places in which they live.For readers who are ready to take the next step, tips are given on where and how to find these animals and whether to approach them, pick them up, or admire them from a distance as well as notes on exploring safely and responsibly.
