Chameleons Are Cool

Who can resist a pocket-sized, bad-tempered, color-changing, swivel-eyed, snail-paced, long-tongued sharpshooter? With the eye of a scientist and enthusiasm to spare, Martin Jenkins reveals the very cool facts about a chameleon’s life and anatomy (did you know, for example, that most of a chameleon’s eye is covered in skin, like the rest of its body? It sees through a tiny peephole in the middle). Sue Shields’s vivid watercolor close-ups bring a chameleon’s unique features into startling focus.

Read and Wonder books tell stories, take children on adventures,
and reveal how big and WONDER-full the natural world really is.
A great resource for teachers!
