Summary
In the hot, dusty Sonoran Desert, a young rattlesnake named Dusty has just gotten something exciting… his very first rattle.
Dusty thinks his new rattle is amazing. So amazing, in fact, that he rattles at everything. Butterflies. Pebbles. Shadows. Even his own tail.
RATTLE RATTLE RATTLE.
But when Dusty rattles all the time, the other desert animals stop paying attention. And one day, when a real danger appears, Dusty learns something important: warnings only work when they’re used for moments that truly matter.
Join Carie, Lincoln, and Eliza as they explore the fascinating world of rattlesnakes, one of North America’s most misunderstood reptiles.
Kids will discover:
- How rattlesnakes sense heat in the dark to find prey
- Why rattlesnakes have a rattle and how it helps protect them
- What a defense mechanism is and how animals use them to stay safe
