(4) 4-6 Comparing Animal Traits series. Each presentation covers appearance, habitat, skills, and traits for its subject while also comparing and contrasting the focal animal with other reptiles by text, photos, and charts. Some comparisons are natural, some surprisingly revealing; however, others--such as tuataras and Brahminy blind snakes--feel random, without many relevant comparative features. There are three other fall 2015 books in this series. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos, ind. Review covers these Comparing Animal Traits titles: American Alligators, Galápagos Tortoises, King Cobras, Panther Chameleons, and Tuataras.
