Besides their infamous rattles, rattlesnakes have many specialized and unique features that set them apart from many snake species. This book takes a close look at these fascinating venomous reptiles! This animal fact book is perfect for families with kids ages 4-10 or a gift for a snake enthusiast at any age. Bob Ferguson II's amazing, vibrant photographs keep readers of all ages engaged, building upon their natural curiosity and interest in snakes! " Rattlesnakes by Jessica Lee Anderson is a wonderful book packed with accurate, entry-level knowledge about one of the most misunderstood animals - the rattlesnakes. While this is a great work for the younger reader, adults with little to no reptile knowledge will benefit greatly from reading about these important creatures that we share the outdoors with. In addition to helpful and concise information written in everyday language, the book is decorated beautifully with some of Bob Ferguson's fabulous photography - showcasing many different species of rattlesnake. A must-have book for the novice herpetologist, as this is where an appreciation and respect for these amazing animals begins." - Cody Will, owner Rattlesnake Ranch AZ "Jessica and Bob did a terrific job of making a book on the coolest species of snakes!" - Jake Helgoth, Colorado snake enthusiast "I'm amazed at how so much information can be put into such an easy-to-read format for even the youngest readers/listeners to understand. This is the perfect beginner's book on rattlesnakes, with information most adults probably don't yet know, but written simply enough to be a read-aloud for the youngest children. The photographs are brilliant, as well, showing all the various colors, patterns, biology and life stages of rattlesnakes." - Chrystal McGough, educator and journalist
