Frogs

---

Dive into the slippery, jumping world of amphibians with Frogs, a highly acclaimed educational picture book written and illustrated by master non-fiction storyteller Gail Gibbons. This accessible science guide introduces young readers to the fascinating biology and behaviors of frogs. Through clear, straightforward text and bright, detailed watercolor illustrations, Gibbons maps out the incredible transformation of a frog's life cycle—from a tiny jelly-like egg floating in a pond, to a swimming tadpole, and finally into a fully developed, air-breathing adult frog. The book also highlights the differences between frogs and toads, examines how their powerful hind legs help them catch prey, and explains how they hibernate to survive freezing winters. Complete with labeled anatomical diagrams and fun trivia, this book acts as an exceptional foundational text for early biology, ecology, and classroom nature studies.
