ALL ABOUT TOADS AND FROGS: A KIDS INTRODUCTION TO FROGS AND TOADS--FUN FACTS AND PICTURES OF THE WORLD'S COOLEST AMPHIBIANS! by Susan G. Charles

Sheila's Reads

All About Frogs and Toads, A Kids Introduction to Frogs and Toads - Fun Facts & Pictures About the Worlds Coolest Amphibians! - Susan G. Charles

I learned a lot about frogs and some about toads. I now know the difference between them. I liked how the book was divided into sections so that I got the cycles they live through. I liked that pictures were provided but I would have liked to see a photograph of the frog or toad that was being spoken about above or below the information not just random frogs. I liked the illustration of the poison dart frogs. I wish they would have been named. They were colorful and I had to guess which one was the yellow banded poison dart frog. But I did enjoy the information. This is a good overview for your 4-8 year old.

The Book High

Classifying Amphibians (Classifying Living Things) - Richard Spilsbury,Louise Spilsbury

This review is for the whole series.

These books have been the backbone of my classification of animals unit for the last two years. They're structured beautifully, beginning with the taxonomy chart, and then showing the breakdown of the various orders within each class.

The rest of the book then takes a closer look at each of the orders and what makes them different from the other animals in that class.

Plus the pictures are lovely and frequently come with captions containing fun or interesting facts.

Delightful series.
