3.0 out of 5 stars Give it to the kids and they'll love it!, February 7, 2001

This review is from: Ripley's Believe It or Not: Reptiles, Lizards And Prehistoric Beasts (Ripley's 100th Anniversary) (Mass Market Paperback)

Many adults will be familiar with the cartoons of Ripley's Believe It Or Not! that used to appear in many newspapers. This book contains some facts about reptiles, but many adults may find that it is a bit on the short side and many of the drawings don't seem to resemble the style of those that were found in the paper.

It is still a good book and anyone who gives it to a child in upper primary school will find that their soon enthralled. Many kids love dinosaurs, frogs and lizards, so facts about weird ones are right up their alley.

I liked this book alot. It is full of cool and interesting things. I liked this book because it was filled with stuff i like. For example if you like strange animals or weird disformed creatures you would love this book. The other Ripley's books arre like this, they give you interestin facts about strange happenings/ or things.Even though it is short it is a good book to fill in your empty time with.
