This read-aloud riddle book pairs tricky, distorted images with playful rhymes that challenge kids to guess the animal—then delivers a page-turn reveal with expert-vetted facts and stunning photography.

What breathes through its skin, regrows limbs, and might be lurking in a muddy pond? In Who Am I? Axolotls and Other Amphibians, kids follow a unique two-spread structure: first, a rhyming riddle paired with a puzzling, distorted photograph that dares readers to guess the animal. Then, a satisfying reveal shows the answer in stunning art and layout—complete with fascinating, expert-reviewed facts.

From axolotls to red-eyed tree frogs, each amphibian leaps off the page with playful rhyme, clever riddles, and eye-opening science. Designed for ages 4–8, this title turns animal facts into a high-engagement reading game—perfect for classroom science units, library read-alouds, and at-home exploration.
