Description: The creators of the award-winning "Flight of the Honey Bee" team up once again for this wonderful introduction to one of the coolest lizards on the planet: the gecko. Full color.

Review Quotes: Brian Lovelock's ink, colored-pencil and watercolor pictures work in beautiful tandem with Raymond Huber's text to describe the capacities of an extraordinary creature...Large type describes the doings of the amber-eyed, orange-spotted blue Tokay gecko that appears in Mr. Lovelock's pictures. Paragraphs
--The Wall Street Journal

With a wonderful economy of words, Huber offers us a gecko perspective, starting with: "Gecko peeks out of a crack in the cliff. All clear....There are many dangers in the daylight, and Gecko is on high alert." Each page includes additional information about the gecko in a different typeface. Lovelock's dazzling illustrations are done in watercolor, acrylic ink and colored pencil.
