This picture book has a bunch of trivia about random reptiles. There's really no rhyme or reason (that I can tell at least) to why certain things were included in here, but it's an interesting hodge-podge of information such as how fast some reptiles move or how they camouflage themselves. My kindergarteners and their pre-K friends enjoyed listening to this short book and learning some new facts.
Marvelous summary of the immigration history of the USA...
A giant of late 20th Century design, holding its own in the early 21st
