Format:Kunststoffeinband
My son became fascinated with reptiles and amphibians at around age 4. This book has helped us both tremendously to understand and identify creatures all around us. We have devoured books of all types at our local library and we keep coming back to this one. The pictures are fabulous and easy enough for a child to use. The text is informative and well presented. My son will be thrilled to find this book under the Christmas tree this year!
Format:Kunststoffeinband
The photos which illustrate this book are organized in such a way that one does not have to be familiar with reptiles and amphibians to make resonably accurate field identifications. For instance, the photographs of striped snakes are grouped together so that you can easily check for that matches the animal you have found.
The text and range map section gives much valuable information as to habitat and behavior as well as breeding and the size of neonates as well as adults.
Format:Kunststoffeinband
This book contains 657 full color pictures of over 470 species of reptiles and amphibians in North America. It covers from habitat locations to breeding and feeding. This is a must for any child or adult who is interested in our native animals.

Great
I have had this book for about 5 years and it has been great!

Excellent field guide! Mostly USA species, light on Canadian
An excellent field guide (particularly in plastic cover-softback). Covers many USA species, but very light on Canadian species. Better than many I've seen though. Lesen Sie weiter...
