Great teaching tool

Great teaching tool for kids. My 3 and 5 year old loved it. They pretend to be tadpoles turning into frogs. I loved that it gave facts and was easy for the kids to remember and understand!!

Educational fun!

I highly reccommend any and all of the "lets find out" books. Excellent teaching tools which hold a child's interest.

the life of a frog

Frogs are fascinating creatures. It seems children especially develop a fondness for them. This is a book that teaches children everything they'd want to know about frogs, and more importantly about how frogs start off as tadpoles before turning into frogs. If you have a child and he or she likes playing with frogs, give them this book.

Another Great Kids' Book

This is another great STAGE 1 book in the "Let's Read & Find Out" Science Series. The STAGE 1 Series books are written for preschool and kindergarten-age kids (age 3 to 6) about basic science concepts. This book has 32 pages of nice illustrations (artwork NOT photography) to help the words tell about the developmental stages of frogs. Some children's books miss the fact of who their target audience is. The "Let's Read & Find Out" books consistently keep subject matter easily understood using age appropriate vocabulary and keep a child interested at the same time.We recently bought a home science frog growing kit. This book is perfect read along material to show my five year old son what to anticipate in coming weeks. The books are written for the reading ability of an "average" 3 year old. Older kids may very well get bored with the simple reading in this book. But, they should find the information about frogs fascinating, especially if they are participating in growing some at home or in class! Remember how much fun frog eggs and tadpoles were as a kid?We have several books in this series and are pleased that our son enjoys them so much.John Row

very good

This book is very appropriate for any young one learning about frogs. My nephew has learned alot from this book about where frogs come from. The pictures are real and not drawings which I like.
