Go big or go home! Meet the biggest weirdos on Earth in this colosally cool collection from the team that brought you Pink Is For Blobfish. It's a big wide world, full of critters that are larger than life! Sure, there are the usual suspects: blue whales, polar bears, elephant seals . . . but others will take you by surprise. The giant snail, for instance, or the ginormous Atlas moth. Like Pink Is for Blobfish and Cute as an Axolotl, Big as a Giant Snail will cover a wide variety of species, while subtly delving into misconceptions and stereotypes associated with size. Best of all? These tall tales are totally true! "Awe-inspiring... This work fits into so many lessons, from endangered species to climate change and habitat preservation, that it’s hard to imagine a collection that would not benefit from having it on its shelves." —School Library Journal

A worm call Leucochloridium needs to reach a bird’s stomach in order to reproduce and spread in the bird’s waste. How it gets there sounds like science fiction! By infesting a snail’s eyestalks and controlling its brain, this parasite sends the snail into the open with eyestalks that now resemble caterpillars, which are a bird’s favorite snack. Readers are introduced to the poor zombie snail and its role in the parasite-host relationship. Full-color photographs showcase the incredible changes the snail undergoes once infected by the parasite. Fascinating fact boxes and main content offer readers the gross, but cool, details!
