Wondreful Book - for ALL ages !!!

This book is GREAT - I saw it's author on "The Colbert Report" - it received the "Colbert Bump" at least from me (Colbert Nation members will understand) - very interesting for all ages, with beautiful pictures, full color and perspective. It has great illustation and information also. Well worth your money !!!!!

Very cool for kids!

A very cool book for kids interested in frogs! The photography is by a National Geographic photographer who specializes in critters, and is quite outstanding.

Truly astounding!!

This is one of those books that every kid and adult will truly be awed by no matter what level interest they have in frogs. It is full of memorable pictures and fascinating facts. I have one on my coffee table and it always receives rave reviews from people of all ages.

My Kids (5, 9 and 11) Love this Book!

Amazing stories! We bought this book after seeing Mark Moffett speak. The book is as compelling as he is in person. It's well-written, informative, and easy for kids to understand. My 5-year old loves the pictures and hearing the stories, we go through it together. Lisa, my 9 year-old is telling her friends cool frog stories, and my 11 year old is planning to search for frogs. The photos are the best I've seen of frogs, ever.
