During the summer months it's easy to overlook the amazing non-fiction titles that emerge ahead of those dreaded three words..."Back to School" - Did you ever get really annoyed at seeing those 'back to school' ads in all shops the minute you'd broken up for the summer holidays?
Thinking about non-fiction needn't mean thinking about a return to academic life though, and fabulous books like "Pocket Guide to Turtles, Snakes and Other Reptiles" by Dr Amy Jane Beer and Alice Pattullo really are full of such amazing facts and information that they're good to read at any time, not just when school's in.
Learn everything you ever wanted to know about reptiles, in this handy pocket-sized guide.
Written by a natural history expert, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to all the families of reptiles such as turtles, tortoises, lizards, snakes, crocodiles and many many more!
If (like C) you absolutely love all things scaly, you'll be in your element in this book.
What is a reptile? Start out with the basics on this fascinating branch of nature |
If you're lucky enough to spot any of our native reptile species here in the UK (or indeed wherever you find yourself in the world) this handy little pocket-sized book will clue you in with tons of amazing info on well known and not-so-well-known reptile species.
Who doesn't love crocodiles, with their fantastic winning smiles! |
We thoroughly enjoyed this one with fab captions and info, and brilliant illustrations.
Look out for the "Pocket Guide to Marine Mammals" also from the same series.
