Excellent book for all ages.
Use to teach: drawing conclusions, what did the author want me to know?, and summarizing.
I enjoyed the note the author included at the end about the importance of frogs and the environment. Children will enjoy the additional information about the frogs in the back of the book. The author also included additional books and websites.

Gorgeous illustrations, onomatopoeia, and froggy facts. What more could you ask for? Oh yes, lots of excellent back matter too!

Frog Song celebrates frogs from around the world by incorporating fun facts, beautiful illustrations, and onomatopoeia to express each frog’s special song. For readers who want to know more about each frog mentioned, there are additional resources on the back pages of the book.

I loved the short fact filled pages that spanned the globe. The illustrations were beautiful. I could use this book as an introduction to amphibians. This informative book could lead to many interesting projects of various curriculums.

I learned several new and gross things about some gorgeous frogs. Way cool.

My son was less interested; maybe we'll try again when he's a little older.

Luscious watercolors and nice text (with onomatopoeic elements) shows the environments of frogs around the word.

I liked the illustrations, but I thought the content could have been more varied rather than just how the different frogs cared for their eggs/tadpoles etc.
