"Dear QKA Reader, Reptiles are just about the coolest creatures on Earth! I know because I happen to be one. Oh sure, some people think we're creepy and cold-blooded, but they just don't know us. That's why I'm so excited that you're reading this book. It will teach you about my family and me. You'll meet my relatives, the skinks. (They're lots of fun at family reunions.) Plus you'll learn about some of my distant cousins: snakes and frogs. Are you wondering why they let birds into this book? Me, too. (Especially since some birds eat lizards!) It turns out that birds might have been related to us reptiles millions of years ago. That's what some herpetologists and ornithologists believe. You'll find more about this at the end of the book. And if you're not sure who herpetologists and ornithologists are, don't worry. There's information about them inside, too. So, read on! And keep on asking questions. Your pondering pal, Leonardo da Lizard."--Inside page.… (more)
