Continuation of the Wild World series comparing big and small animal sizes.

Did you ever wonder which animals are the biggest... and the smallest? Reptiles can be found in all shapes and sizes. Did you know a nano-chameleon is small enough to fit on a fingernail? Or, that the saltwater crocodile can grow to be 20 feet long? What do these animals look like and where do they live? Look inside to discover which of the ten reptiles in this book are very small and which ones are really big! ABOUT THE SERIES: Kids can't get enough animal facts! Starting with the smallest animal in each group - amphibians, birds, fish, mammals, and reptiles - readers will want to read to the end as the ten animals listed get bigger and bigger. All the books in this brand-new series brim with colorful photographs and fascinating facts about the featured animals' body, diet, and habitat. Short blocks of text entertain and explain why some animals are very small while others are really big!
