Book Description
Fat Frog Fat Frog relaxes in childlike poses, enjoying the sun and the peace and quiet of the swamp. Eyes close as he dozes off for a little nap. Suddenly, his nap is interrupted by a buzzing sound.... Is someone sawing up Fat Frog's favorite log? Is it a bee? Fat Frog does not like the sting of bees! Eyes wide open, Fat Frog now sees the source of this buzzing and the adventure begins! Many years ago, in a little pool of shallow clear chilly water at the base of Mt. Shasta, Rosette saw a tiny green tree frog skimming along the gravel. She gently picked him up and he cuddled in the warmth of her palm. Her love of frogs began. Rosette Hurst is in the process of publishing several other children's short stories. Look for them at your favorite Book Store or online.

Book Description
“A huge, beautiful compendium of 600 frogs from around the world, from the famed poison-arrow variety on up to the intriguingly named plaintive rain frog.” —Wired With over 7,000 known species, frogs display a stunning array of forms and behaviors. A single gram of the toxin produced by the skin of the Golden Poison Frog can kill 100,000 people. Male Darwin’s Frogs carry their tadpoles in their vocal sacs for sixty days before coughing them out into the world. The Wood Frogs of North America freeze every winter, reanimating in the spring from the glucose and urea that prevent cell collapse. The Book of Frogs commemorates the diversity and magnificence of all of these creatures, and many more. Six hundred of nature’s most fascinating frog species are displayed, with each entry including a distribution map, sketches of the frogs, species identification, natural history, and conservation status. Life-size color photos show the frogs at their actual size—including the colossal seven-pound Goliath Frog. Accessibly written by expert Tim Halliday and containing the most up-to-date information, The Book of Frogs will captivate both veteran researchers and amateur herpetologists. As frogs increasingly make headlines for their troubling worldwide decline, the importance of these fascinating creatures to their ecosystems remains underappreciated. The Book of Frogs brings readers face to face with six hundred astonishingly unique and irreplaceable species that display a diverse array of adaptations to habitats that are under threat of destruction throughout the world. “If you are a serious (and I mean serious) fan of the frog, you are in for a real treat.” —Boing Boing
