Fascinating science meets gorgeous collage art in Jenkins's book about measuring creatures big and small. An unusual, unusually effective tool for connecting children to nature's astonishing variety.--"Booklist," starred review. Full color.
Just how big is a crocodile? What about a tiger, or the world's largest spider? Can you imagine a tongue that is two feet long or an eye that is bigger than your head? Sometimes facts and figures don't tell the whole story. In this visually stunning book, seeing is believing as Steve Jenkins illustrates animals both large and small at ACTUAL SIZE.
