Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
With Spanish vocabulary and a clever color concept, this poetic picture book shares the life cycle of beloved amphibian-the axolotl-in its natural habitat.
An axolotl may look like one, but it is certainly Not a Monster . This curious creature, made popular by Minecraft, is actually a salamander that will never lose its gills or fins. Not a Monster explores the traits of the axolotl, the Aztec origin myth about the species, and the way pollution is affecting its natural habitat- the canals of Xochimilco in Mexico City.
Fun and engaging, this playful and informative read-aloud introduces curious readers on one cool character who is NOT a monster!
Includes some words in Spanish.
"An axolotl egg hatches and matures in the Xochimilco canals in Mexico City, the only natural habitat of these unique salamanders that spend their lives in water." -- Provided by publisher.
