About this ebook
A sneak peek into the remarkable world of the tail-less amphibians.
Some frogs blend into the green of their ponds, and live an unremarkable existence. But some are strange looking, having adapted to a special environment.
This colorful and informative book reveals a rare and close-up look at the odd beauty of some of the strangest of these creatures largely hidden from our view.
Weird Frogs features:
- Beautiful photographs that show the frogs up close -- really close
- Informative captions that provide fascinating details about the lives of these endangered and fascinating creatures.
Available in hardcover and paperback, the book will appeal to middle school students exploring topic ideas, younger students interested in wildlife and advanced readers who enjoy picture books.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The photographs in this book are beautiful. I do however wish there was more text. Most, maybe all of the frogs get only a short paragraph each, and some only two sentences. I guess this would be a good book for middle grade kids but I found myself wanting more.
