Happy National Reptile Day! In honor of this auspicious occasion, I have compiled a list of 7 fun picture books featuring reptiles! Enjoy!
The Watermelon Seed
by Greg Pizzoli
published by Disney Hyperion
You can't go wrong with anything by Greg Pizzoli.
If you like Templeton, you'll love The Watermelon Seed.
The Enormous Crocodile
by Roald Dahl
illustrated by Quentin Blake
published by Puffin Books
The Copy Crocs
by David Bedford
illustrated by Emily Bolam
published by Peachtree Publishers
I received a copy of this from Peachtree and we have read it and read it. My kids and I love it and you will too!
The Brief Thief
by Michael Escoffier
illustrated by Kris di Giacomo
published by Enchanted Lion Books
This is still one of the funniest picture books I've ever read. Seriously. I laughed out long for an embarrassing amount
of time the first time I read it.
The Lady with the Alligator Purse
by Nadine Bernard Westcott
published by LB Kids
This is one to really get little imaginations going.
Lots of fun to read aloud.
The Mixed-Up Chameleon
by Eric Carle
published by Harper Collins
Who doesn't love Eric Carle? I feel like The Very Hungry Caterpillar gets so much attention that some of his other fun books are overlooked. Don't make that mistake on this one.
Manana, Iguana
by Ann Whitford Paul
illustrated by Ethan Long
published by Holiday House
Aren't these fun?! Well, here's something else that's super fun: a giveaway!!! Peachtree Publishers is offering TEN Big Hair and Books readers the chance to win a copy of The Copy Crocs!! Enter below!
