KID E-LIT
ANNA IS AN AXOLOTL... BUT WHAT IS AN AXOLOTL? .Imagine a magical creature that never really grows up. It's like a water superhero! It's a special type of animal that lives underwater in lakes in Mexico. What's really cool is that it never turns into a grown-up like many other animals do. It stays a kid forever! It has frilly gills around its head that look like a cute collar, and it has a long, swishy tail. Instead of growing up and getting legs like other animals, it keeps its tadpole-like shape. Axolotls are also superstars in healing. If they ever lose a part of their body, like an arm or a tail, they can grow it back! They are magical wizards of regeneration.
People love axolotls so much that some keep them as pets in tanks at home, taking good care of them and watching them swim around.
