Gecko

A fantastic new addition to the Nature Storybook series!

Welcome to the world of Gecko. He warms up on the sun-baked rocks in the evening before hunting for food. A cockroach makes a yummy snack! Watch out! A hawk is hunting. Gecko changes his skin colour and blends into the rock until the hawk flies away. A wonderful introduction to one of the most varied species of lizard on the planet.

“A lushly-coloured study.”
