Each spread in this exciting volume focuses on one topic (e.g., “How Crocodilians Move,” “What Crocodilians Eat”) or highlights specific creatures, including Nile crocodiles, freshwater crocodiles, and saltwater crocodiles. The energetic design and action-packed photos (including plenty of close-ups and images of crocs catching their next meals) will draw in reluctant readers. “Snack on This!” text boxes contribute interesting facts, such as “Crocodiles and alligators are more closely related to birds than they are to other reptiles.” The book ends with a glossary, resources for further information, and an index.
