| book description |

A beautifully illustrated introduction to reptiles with colorful watercolor art and descriptions full of fun facts. From the creator of the bestselling The Colorful World of Dinosaurs, this follow-up volume introduces fifty amazing reptiles with striking watercolor art and fun facts on each. Beloved author-illustrator Matt Sewell delves into the fascinating, mysterious, and sometimes downright bizarre lives of reptiles, including spectacular snakes, lizards, crocodiles, bearded dragons, turtles, and tortoises. Did you know . . . The oldest known reptilian fossil is 315 million years old! That dinosaurs were also reptiles—though not, as some people think, giant lizards. The green basilisk can walk on water. The Galápagos tortoise can comfortably live for more than one hundred years. The saltwater crocodile is the world’s biggest living reptile (with an average one weighing around one thousand pounds!). The Colorful World of Reptiles explores all these creatures and more—bright, horned, camouflaged, and striped—through gorgeous watercolor illustrations paired with surprising, little-known, and fun-to-tell facts about reptile behavior, habits, and appearance. This fascinating book will delight young readers and beguile reptile fans of all ages.
