Is your eye as big as a giant squid’s? Is your nose as big as a bear’s? Are your teeth as big a great white shark’s? Find out the answers to these questions and more within the pages of Actual Size an amazing work of nonfiction for the pre-school crowd by Steve Jenkins. Actual Size features illustrations of animals scaled to life, so you can compare your body parts with those of fantastic wild life. There are even flip out pages so you can see just how long a crocodile’s mouth is (23 feet), or how big a Goliath frog is (36 inches with legs extended)! You can measure your hand to that of a huge gorilla, or a tiny pygmy mouse lemur. You can even see what it’d be like to be face-to-face with a Siberian tiger, the biggest of the big cats! Actual Size is a hoot for kids of all ages! See this book listed in our catalog
