Customer Reviews

One of the best general frog books available.

This book (hardcover) has a beautiful lay out, well written text (nice letter type !) and especially the stunning photography! This together makes it in my view one of the best (general) frog books on the market today. Please do note the word "general", the information is targeted at anyone with an interest in frogs in general, a broad audience. Which should work fine in this case.

Great for Understanding and for Teachers

I teach 6th grade and have this in my science reading corner. My students enjoy the book,and it is written close to their grade level; however the book is enjoyble to me as an adult and nature lover as well. It begins by a thoughrough introduction to frogs and amphibians. The book then delves into frog classification. The photos and diagrams are plentiful with many phottos of rare and unusual frogs.

Frogs and more beautiful frogs

If you are into frogs like me, you'll enjoy this book very much. Excellent pictures, great narrative and a wealth of information about these incredible creatures. Too bad, humans are destroying their habitats in the jungles. The other book about frogs with a lot more pictures is "Frogs" by David Badger. This is also a winner!
