A Frog's Life

This survey introduces frog species from around the world and compares their striking differences. It includes the golden poison frog, identified as the planet’s most toxic animal; the tiny Amau frog, which is no larger than a housefly; and the Chinese gliding frog, able to travel through the air for up to seventeen feet. The book also covers how frogs hunt, what they eat, the shapes of their bodies, and the ways they protect themselves. Alongside these varied species, it explains the basic stages shared in a frog’s life cycle.
