Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
This tall, narrow hardcover book comes complete with a plastic-framed mirror. Open the book, rotate it 90 degrees, and place the mirror in a slot: suddenly you can see straight down the gaping, ravenous, downright alarmingly three-dimensional gullet of an alligator snapping turtle. Gulp. The text, which is likely to be ignored until young readers are tired of going squinty-eyed over the pictures, gives an excellent and well-illustrated introduction to the world of caimans, skinks, snakes, and salamanders--with much emphasis on their voracious guzzling of creatures unfortunate enough to be further down the food chain. There's also a clear explanation of the 3-D effect--and, although the book doesn't mention it, nobody should miss the spooky thing that happens when you try to touch the fingertips of your right and left hands at the mirror. (Ages 7 and older) --Richard Farr
