Stunning photos!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
The Eyewitness books are made for kids, but I would say this book is a must-have for all amphibian fans, including adults. The photos are absolutely stunning, and the text is very good, even for adults. I love this book!
One of the stronger Eyewitness books
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
For those who are new to the Eyewitness format, it consists of thematically arranged two-page spreads of brilliant photographs on a white background. There is an intro paragraph in the upper left-hand corner, but most of the text is in the captions that go with the photographs. Generally, the biological sciences titles are the strongest in this series, since other topics often need a more organized progression of topics. You'll get a lot of information out of these books, but you won't get a systematic anaylsis. This is an especially good book. The organization works well for the topic, and there is a great deal of in-depth information not normally covered even in high school-level biology books. Great for any child interested in amphibians!
Las ilustraciones cautiban la atencion del lector.

The beautiful color illustrations definitely capture the attention of the reader. This is another excellent Eyewitness book in spanish. This book brings the subject of frogs, newts, and salamanders to its readers. The pictures of the various poison dart frogs was especially informative.

My son and I greatly enjoyed this book. It is presented in the typical, and attractive, Eyewitness style, and is packed with information and pictures. I especially enjoyed reading about ancient amphibians. I had no idea that they grew so large in ancient times!
