Hello, I'm an Axolotl

Meet the Wild Things, Book #4

Meet the axolotl in this clever, funny, and informative nonfiction picture book, part of a series that focuses on endangered species.

Did you know that axolotls have a superpower? They can regrow lost limbs, tails, and even parts of their hearts and brains!

And they sparkle! That's because they have special cells in their bodies that reflect light like glitter. Pretty neat, huh?

But did you also know the axolotl is endangered and needs our help? While there are about a million axolotls in tanks and aquariums around the world, there are fewer than 500 left in the wild.

Chock-full of amazing, kid-friendly facts and inviting artwork from the #1 New York Times bestselling, Caldecott Honoree illustrator of Blackout, the Meet the Wild Things series introduces young readers to endangered animals from around the globe, told from the points of view of the animals themselves.
