Stretch and swim like a garter snake with this adorable, STEM nonfiction picture book, part of a series that encourages very young readers to learn―through gentle interactivity and play―about the animals who share their world
Stretch, bend, twist! You may haves seen a small, slim garter snake disappear between rocks or flowers. Did you know that garter snakes spray smelly stuff to scare off predators, sniff with their tongues, and cuddle together for winter? From birth to first shedding and beyond, discover all that goes into being a garter snake in this charming picture book, the fourth in the Meet Your World series.
This playful and informative series invites you to take a closer look at the amazing animals that live right alongside you in rural, suburban, and urban landscapes across North America. In each book, words and art inspire you to act out animal actions that are not so different from your own habits. And robust backmatter offers even more information and fun with fascinating facts, a glossary, activities, and tips on how to help and protect garter snakes. From the animals’ families and foods to their environments and behaviors, let’s meet your world!
