This is one in a series of books that takes an in-depth look at the life cycles of familiar plants and animals. This text looks at the frog and aims to give an understanding that animals move, feed, grow, use their senses and reproduce. The stages of development are explained through simple text and photography, and an illustrated timeline on each page charts these stages within the lifespan of the frog. Other features include "see for yourself" activities and "did you know?" panels containing facts and records. The author specializes in zoology and human biology for younger readers.
