Lizards in the Land of High and Low is a delightful and educational children’s book that takes readers on a journey to discover how two unique lizards—one from cold, high-altitude mountains and the other from warm, low-altitude valleys—adapt to their environments. Based on real scientific research, this story introduces young readers to the world of science and adaptation through the lens of a "sprinting contest" and fascinating muscle comparisons. The book explores the research question: How do these lizards’ muscles help them survive and move in such different places? It explains how the mountain lizard, P. erythrurus, has muscles suited for cold temperatures, while the valley lizard, P. przewalskii, has muscles that work best in warmth. The engaging narrative and colorful illustrations inspire curiosity about science, biology, and how animals thrive in extreme environments. Perfect for budding scientists and nature lovers alike!
