5.0 out of 5 stars
The best book for a budding herpetologist,
By A Customer
This review is from: Reptiles and Amphibians (Peterson Field Guide Coloring Books) (Paperback)
This book has had my son absolutely enrapured for weeks. There are probably 50 (+) or so line drawings each of snakes, salamanders, turtles and other lizards each with an interesting explanation. Your child can color in each drawing after finding its picture somewhere in the book. The diagrams are detailed enough for older kids as well as little ones probably starting with age 5 or so. This book also has pages of colored stickers for extra fun and observation. This is absolutely the best book of its kind.
