Description: Scorpions are one of the most easily recognized members of the animal kingdom. Unfortunately, they've also acquired an undeserved bad reputation. This book examines the lives of these mysterious nocturnal creatures. Full-color photographs give a close-up view of scorpions' unusual body features. Fact boxes share additional information and dispel myths. While scorpions should be treated with a healthy respect, they're certainly not the villains that some of us think they are.
