About this product
Product Information
Scientists discover the secrets of the Komodo dragon. This strange creature inspired myth and legend, luring brave souls into the forests of Indonesia to see if the tales were true. In the end, it attracted scientists, who unraveled the mysteries of how such a remarkable creature could exist, how it uses the deadly germs in its saliva to its advantage, and how those microbes may lead to cures for stubborn diseases. Wildlife biologist and children's writer Marty Crump describes how her friends, colleagues and other scientists tracked, studied, and escaped the Komodo dragon. Her dramatic text, complemented by photographs from key scientists, tells the true story of the world's deadliest lizard. A portion of the proceeds from this book will go to the Komodo Survival Program.

Reviews
"The twin focus on the creatures themselves and on the people who study them makes this a standout, and readers with a serious yen to know more will find the unusually large bibliography of (mostly) adult resources just the ticket." -- Booklist, "Especially of interest to children as they learn about animals around the world and conservation efforts." -- Library Media Connection
