SynopsisThis basic beginner's field guide to our favorite animals that slither and swim is the latest in the growing National Geographic Pocket Guide series. Spot-on descriptive information and key facts about reptiles and amphibians are conveyed in a handy, colorful, easy-to-reference volume. More robust than any other beginning field guides, this book includes selected photography and newly commissioned art and graphics to illustrate and identify each species from every angle. With logical organization and bulleted information, this pocket guide is useful in the field or as in-home reference, for beginners, families, and new nature lovers alike.
This is the second book I have purchased that is National Geographic. Unfortunately they were purchased at the same time, or I wouldn't have bought the second one. While they are nice books, they are incomplete. The information they provide is basic and not detailed enough. Unless you read into the page, it dosen't tell you if they are poisoness or not, if at all. I am not that versed in reptiles but the first snake I tried to look up wasn't in the book, as well as his almost twin in the same region. Then I started checking out some of the others that I am familiar with in my area and couldn't find them either. I will not buy another National Geographic book again, I will stick with Autubon.
