The format for this title, as with others in the series (birds, insects, sea creatures ...) is to show single, close-up colour photographs of individual species from around the world. They are chosen for their weirdness and bright colours and are all shown against a white background ('cut-outs' in the industry) which makes them more dramatic... The book is for 10 year olds and older, and will be a useful introduction to the group., People of all ages like frogs, and what's not to like? They look awesome, sound great and play vital roles in nature. In Weird Frogs Chris Early, the interpretive biologist at the University of Guelph Arboretum, introduces us to "58 odd-looking frogs and the strange ways they have adapted to a special environment." And these beautiful creatures do have some bizarre features... The illustrations in the book are excellent and the captions for each frog contain interesting and fascinating facts about the animal... The descriptions include why the frog looks like he does, features they have to defend themselves, where they live and more. As Earley points out in the Introduction it is important to learn about frogs as many of them are experiencing reductions in their populations due to such things as "...habitat loss, collecting for the pet trade, pollution, climate change and the introduction of invasive species..." Weird Frogs is a fun and fascinating book for young (and old) naturalists., The descriptions include why the frog looks like he does, features they have to defend themselves, where they live and more., Amazing images of weird birds and frogs appear ready to fly and leap, respectively... (Reviewed with Weird Birds) off the pages of these informative books written by a biologist who is keen to share his fascination with the creatures featured. The crisp photographs display the image on a white background that allows the reader to focus on the striking details of the exotic birds and frogs, while the text points out bizarre and not-so-bizarre facts., Firefly Books is renowned for its incredible photography and this one belongs at the top. Full page images of some very unusual frogs are accompanied with information describing each. They are amazing!... 5 out of 5., A sneak peek into the remarkable world of the tail-less amphibians -- while some frogs blend into the green of their ponds, others are strange looking, having adapted to a special environment. This fascinating book reveals the odd beauty of some of the strangest of these creatures. Bright colours, unique camouflage and bizarre adaptations are amongst the dazzling attributes that will ensnare readers of all ages., Frogs are extremely important to nature, but are often misunderstood by humans. This clearly photographed book showcases every detail of frogs' appearances. Fifty-eight odd-looking frogs and their strange mannerisms are presented; with fascinating details about their purposes and endangerments., Weird Frogs examines 58 of the oddest and most colorful members of the frog world. The Vietnamese mossy frog, for example, resembles a clump of moss; all it has to do to hide from predators is to sit still. The strawberry poison dart frog takes a different approach: its brilliant colors let enemies see it plainly -- and avoid it.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
