COPY ISBN
Gr 1–3-Stunning, colorful photographs are used throughout this slim Spanish-language title and are sure to grab the attention of young readers interested in amphibians. The photos are thoughtfully placed and support the rich text. Numbered photographs and fact boxes are used to describe the life cycle of a frog. A spread highlighting the differences between frogs and toads is a neat addition for the aspiring nature walker.
VERDICT An engaging reading group choice for elementary students who are beginning to read independently in Spanish.-Katie Darrin, Boulder Valley School District, Boulder, CO
