As you know I am always happy to get to mix it up a little and this book was great as both a reader and a science book. We read it for reading but my 8-year-old son enjoyed the topic and pictures so much he asked me not to take it back. He was compiling a list of favorites he would like as pets; among them was the Blue Tonge Skink. It is written in question and answer format that is easy for him to understand. The photos are fun too. We have been enjoying these Dial Easy-To-Read, Level 3 books that start with Why Do. The library has it recommended as a reader for 2-3rd grade.
I bought this book for my 7 yr old who hates to read, but loves reptiles. I was really impressed by the quality of the photos and interesting facts about the animals. I have found that alot of beginning reader books are boring, but this really held his interest. Plus, the way it's broken into chapters, makes it easy to read a couple pages a night.
This book was for a grandson who loves snakes. He thought it was great.
