Down in Texas, a horned toad meets an owlet. Horned toad explains how people have gotten his name wrong. He is not a toad, he is a lizard. He goes on to explain how he has a super power. He describes how he is cold blooded like a snake, he has horns that make him look scary, and he can camouflage himself by blending in. But none of those are his superpower.
While the illustrations entice, the story line bores. This book is more like a fact book trying to be a storybook. It is made up mostly of dialogue that teaches.
