Description
Meet Sid. Sid is a little lizard who lives on the beautiful island of Madeira, where the sun shines very hot. Too hot sadly - because poor Sid has a problem with keeping his feet cool.
With the help of his friends Steph and Bert, and a very special, very tiny mouse named Pete - not forgetting the frog friends too! - Sid tries to solve the problem, finally keeping his feet cool in a very unusual way.
The book has layers of lessons beneath the charming story, encouraging young readers to learn about wildlife and their habitat, as well as teaching morals like being kind to others and taking responsibility for your actions. At the same time, children will be drawn to the illustrations, which provide the colour and shape that trigger a child’s imagination, as well as including a little game of spotting Pete the mouse who looks after everyone.
Engaging and entertaining, Sid the Madeiran Wall Lizard is a story young readers aged up to 7 years old will want to pick up time and time again!

A most interesting and educative way of learning about these Madeira lizards. This little book is like a biology for kids book that gives unique and interesting information about a few of the Madeiran animal citizens. It is colorful and very eye catching with a little quirkiness to it, simple and nice yet informative.

This was kind of cute! I guess it may become a series? It's a pretty straight forward tale of Sid who likes to eat food tourists drop. Littles might like it. My Kindle didn't show any illustrations, but I'd bet they are cute. I'll have to look for the book.
