Rating:  Summary: EYED ON A RED-EYED FROG Review: Last night, when I was going to give a bed time story to my daughter at the age of four, she stopped me and told me what she witnessed that day. She said, "Daddy, you know the red-eyed frog? That's really weird. It checked out an ant, a caterpillar, a grasshopper and even a snake. The snake almost ate it. You must be scared!" I told it to my wife. She said, "Well, Amazon's package arrived today. She just found and took out a "Red-Eyed Tree Frog" among other books. She seemed to like it." My daughter is a Japanese kid and cannot speak nor read English. But surely this book attracts attention of any small ones.
Rating:  Summary: Both of my children love this book! Review: My 2 year old likes to yell, "Look out frog," "Jump," and "Crunch, crunch, crunch," at the appropriate pages. My four year old likes it, too. The pictures are nice and vibrant. This is one of their favorites.

Rating:  Summary: cool frogs Review: The cover photograph of an alert red-eyed tree frog immediately captures attention and invites one into the book. The close-up photographs are of great clarity and interest with one or two sentences of simple text for each one. Shown are some other animal life forms in the frog's habitat. These are introduced as are the frog's daily cycles, its prey, and its enemies. It shows how the frog eludes them. This book concludes with "Did You Know?" which is two pages with facts about its habitat, physiology and life cycle, which were not covered in the story. This section includes small photographs that illustrate its size, toe suckers, and how it sleeps blending into the environment with its unusual eyes closed. This truly delightful book gives a surprising amount of information. It would appeal to any age level, though its simple text is designed for a younger audience. It would also be an excellent addition for English Language Learners or other Special Needs people. This wonderful introduction of this endearing creature is sure to be loved by frog aficionados. I highly recommend this book.
Rating:  Summary: Fun, Realistic Frog Review: You see the front cover. The rest of the book is like that: beautiful, vivrant images of the star, a lone red-eyed tree frog.The "Red-Eyed Tree Frog" introduces us to a tint frig with wide eyes, and a few adventures he has. He contemplates eating an ant, swallows a moth, and narrowly escapes being munched by a snake. The photographer should get the kudos here, as though there is text, it is the pictures which are the prize. The storyline is bland, unpoetic, but the photos are amazing. We see the frog flying in mid-air, and with his foot being tasted by the snake, and a moth pre- and mid-lunch. There is a cool shot of the frog with his eyes closed, as the frog sleeps, and the odd film covering its eyes. It is a real look at a day in the life of one tree frog. Anthony Trendl
