Book 3 - Frogs by Nic Bishop


How many colors of frogs do you know? Do they live on every continent? This book has the most detailed photos and answers questions I never knew. Did you know the Goliath frog is as heavy as a baby? Did you know there is a see-through frog? You can see it's stomach and heart. All frogs have long back legs, a big head and eyes, and damp skin with no tail. Toads are a kind of frog with drier skin. They hop because their legs are shorter. They don't have to live as close to water. Frogs don't have as many bones as we do, and half of their bones are in their feet!! Look at the pictures about how they eat and swallow. It is extremely interesting where the photographer explains how he got these pictures and how he trained some of the frogs! What did you think?
