display_description
"From morning to night and from the forest to the desert, what do frogs do all day? In this short book, celebrated biologist Marty Crump shows readers exactly how frogs spend their time. Each chapter covers a single frog during a single hour, highlighting twenty-four different species from around the globe. At midnight in Indonesia, we hear the rustle of leaves above. It's not a bird, but Wallace's flying frog, using its webbed feet and emerald-green skin flaps to glide through the forest canopy. Other amphibians might hide from the morning sun, but not Madagascar's orange-red tomato frog. If its showy coloration doesn't discourage predators, a sticky mucus-powerful enough to glue a snake's jaws together-provides a means of escape. At dusk, in a Peruvian rain forest, we see a giant spider-a hairy tarantula-and what looks like a tiny amphibian pet taking shelter in its burrow. Other frogs make a tasty meal for this tarantula, but the dotted humming frog is a friend, eating the ants that might otherwise make a meal of the tarantula's eggs. For each chapter, award-winning artist Tony Angell has depicted these scenes with his signature pen and ink illustrations. Working closely together to narrate and illustrate these unique moments in time, Crump and Angell have created an engaging read that is a perfect way to spend an hour or two-and a true gift for readers, amateur scientists, and all frog fans"--
