Books in First Library: Animal Classification series

Many mammals, insects, and other animals are easily recognizable. However, there are other creatures that are less well known, such as protozoa, which are single-celled living things that are neither plants nor animals. These tiny organisms can only be seen by looking through a microscope. They live in various habitats and even inside animals. This age-appropriate and well-researched text simplifies this complex biology topic to make it more easily understandable for young readers. Detailed graphic organizers, informational diagrams, engaging fact boxes, and vibrant, full-color photographs enhance this essential science curriculum topic.

This fascinating series takes a very simple look at animal classifications, with each book focussing on a different group of animal. This book is about reptiles: what they do, how they behave, and how these characteristics are different from other groups of animals. Beautifully illustrated with colorful photographs, the book shows many examples of different types of reptiles in their natural environment.
