It's a warm spring morning in the desert. A large pink and black lizard crawls slowly from its burrow. The hungry reptile is leaving its underground home to search for a meal of eggs. If the gila monster is successful, it will eat a huge breakfast then return to its burrow and not emerge again for several months! Filled with information perfectly suited to the abilities and interests of its young audience, this colorful, fact-filled volume gives readers a chance not only to learn, but also to develop their powers of observation and critical thinking. Activities, such as describing the gila monster to a friend and discussing critical thinking questions, give readers a chance to gain insights beyond the facts and figures. From taking a peek as baby gila monsters hatch from their eggs, to seeing the animal use its tongue to smell for food, this book makes learning about the habits and habitat of these secretive creatures an enjoyable, satisfying experience.

"This is the first comprehensive treatment of the biology of the Monstersauria in nearly 50 years, during which time our knowledge has increased dramatically. It gives the reader an unprecedented opportunity to understand the evolution, ecology, and behavior of gila monsters and beaded lizards, as well as insights into folklore, venom, and threats to the existence of these fabled animals."--William Cooper, Indiana University-Purdue University at Fort Wayne "Beck is the foremost authority on these animals and has published extensively on them. He provides a highly readable and fascinating summary of their biology."--Jonathan Campbell, author of Venomous Reptiles of Latin America
