"The Great Plains narrow-mouthed toad sings “BUZZBUZZBUZZ,” while in northeastern Australia, the Scarlet-sided Pobblebonk says “BONK … BONK … BONK.” Readers are introduced to 11 different frogs and their weird and wacky songs from all around the world in this beautiful illustrated and fun to read book. Songs aren’t the only interesting things about these frogs. The male Darwin’s frog, from Chile, keeps the kids in his vocal sacs for seven weeks, then gives a big yawn, and out they pop! Lots of information packed into a book that reads like a picture book, and one that is sure to have kids clamoring for a visit to the zoo. (For ages 4 to 8)"
