Basilisks, flying dragons, lizards hatching out of eggs, and more: you'll find them in real-life, full color photographs in this book. Nic Bishop, the author, is one of today's foremost animal photographers and his expertise and patience shines through in every up-close lizard photo.This particular book is geared for the beginning reader; it is adapted from his 2010 book of the same title. It contains the same amazing photographs and just a little informative text on each lizard.Highly recommended for new readers and anyone who loves animal photographs! We have this book in our Easy to Read Nonfiction section, a small section geared for beginning readers who love to learn about animals, space, weather, vehicles, and so much more. Nic Bishop's photographs are amazing, showcasing the diversity and coolness of lizards. The text is engaging, full of fun facts and important concepts, but I wish there had been more effort to distinguish the different concepts--eating, survival, mating, etc--with headings or a similar organization system. I appreciated the bit at the end about capturing the lizards and the reference list and brief index.
