9The reticulated python is the longest snake in the world, and other pythons are quite long as well! Pythons are constrictors, which mean they squeeze their prey. What's more, they can take down some huge prey in this manner! In this book, readers are introduced to the many kinds of python, including their body, behavior, life cycle, and more. Full-color photographs complement at-level, achievable text written just for young elementary readers. Fact boxes expound on main text concepts, science vocabulary, and more.
