PUBLISHER G.P. Putnam's Sons Books for Young Readers (05/12/2026)
PRODUCT TYPE Hardcover (Hardcover)

Description
A factual (and funny) introduction to the horned toad and its gross but cool "superpower."

The Texas desert may be hard living for some, but not for a little lizard called the horned toad. Between lounging in the hot sun, snacking on ants, and chatting with his new friend Owlet, things are pretty easy. Some might even say it's a laid back life . . . unless of course he's about to get eaten. Then, and only then will he show off a trick so wacky and weird, it will make you run for the hills (just like his predators). That's right folks, this toad has a superpower!

Ready to find out what it is? You won't believe your eyes!
