In this funny and fascinating picture book, learn about pairs of similar animals that are often confused for each other, and what makes them different!
Tortoises and turtles, leopards and tigers, and crocodiles and gators all have similarities. But these easily confusable creatures are NOT the same!
Did you know that a dolphin has a bottlenose, while a porpoise has a snout? Or that a manatee’s tail is shaped like a paddle, and a dugong’s like a whale? Or that monkeys have tails, but apes do not?
With humorous text and hilarious illustrations, this book invites curious readers to discover what makes these animals special!
