Sammy'S Science Arizona

In this second installment called Sammys Science Arizona I deal solely with animals and plants inhabiting the state of Arizona. As always I tell the science facts in this book using my mixed species animal family characters from our radio broadcast. The main characters are Sammy Skunk the dad; Daphne Skunk the mama; Erasmus the teenage porcupine; Ewald the middle school-age roadrunner; our pet orange tabby cat Bonkers; and Tremor the wee skateboarding mouse. In this book Randy Raccoon Eddy Beaver Donkey Dan Beanie the Goat Big Red and a few other characters also appear. Though we have many dangerous animals in the state of Arizona most are small including the coral snake several species of rattle snakes scorpions centipedes Gila monsters several spiders and many other small creatures. There are also a few dangerous desert plants. Then we also have six medium-to-large carnivores that call our state their home. I hope that by reading this book visitors new residents as well as those that have been residents for a few years will learn to be careful while hiking in the states wilderness areas. Enjoy your everyday lives and be careful while hiking camping biking or hunting in Arizona. Never go hiking without a friend or two along and like me carry a big knife plenty of water a good hat plenty of sunscreen and a good walking stick with you. Enjoy Arizona. Sammy
