Exploring the World of Reptiles and Amphibians is designed to introduce the middle-school student to the exciting and diverse species that make up the reptilian and amphibian classes.

From Adders to Xenosaurs, the six volumes of this set provide more than 100 articles that describe in detail specific groups of cold-blooded vertebrates - the reptiles and amphibians that inhabit waters and lands around the world.

Special features of each volume include:

  • Two family trees that show how these diverse reptilian and amphibian species fit into the animal kingdom and how they are related to one another
  • A glossary of terms used throughout the set
  • Additional resources that include further reading and Internet sources
  • A volume-specific index
Fact file boxes provide in-depth statistics about each animal, and Did You Know? sidebars present interesting and little-known facts that enhance each entry. In addition, there are facts about each animal's distribution, habitat, size, coloration, diet, breeding, and conservation status.

Beautifully illustrated with full-colour photographs and drawings, Exploring the World of Reptiles and Amphibians will be sure to inform, enlighten, and entertain young readers of all ages.
