About
They slink. They slither. They may even stare with unblinking eyes. Reptiles send shivers up some people's spines. But reptiles might be the most misunderstood pets around. Invite young readers to take a look beyond a reptile's physical features and discover what it's like to see, smell, hear, and feel all from a reptile's point of view! Readers will discover how reptiles use a Jacobson's organ to smell, how they use their tails to defend against attacks, as well as quick facts about some reptile species commonly kept as pets.

"These informative books are narrated by a generic animal, though the first and last pages are written in the third person. Several of the eight chapters in each volume focus on the animal's senses and communication, explaining topics such as why dogs sniff each other's bottoms. . . .the focus on senses and communication sets this series apart. Solid contenders."
