Publisher's Synopsis
I, Ixodes, The Mighty Tick. The true story of Ixodes the tick.
Did you know that...
- Mom ticks lay thousands of eggs to be sure enough babies grow into healthy blood-
sucking ticks.
- To a tick, food means one thing--the blood
of a warm-blooded animal.
- A tick has tiny cutters at the end of its
feeding tube to snip an entry hole in your skin.
- Ticks squirt a glue
on your skin to keep
you from brushing them off.
- Ticks can give you Lyme Disease or Rocky Mountain
Spotted Fever.
