A wonderful addition to the library of anyone who enjoys science books. ... Read more

Trouble Comes In A Bunch (Of Grapes!)
Looking for a new planet to picnic on, Commander Toad and the crew of STAR WARTS descend to the planet and immediately discover that everywhere they step giant purple grapes sprout up.In no time at all, Commander Toad, Doc Peeper, Lieutenant Lily, and Mr. Hop are swallowed up by the giant purple grapes and are telling some of the worst grape jokes in the universe!And it looks like there's no way out!

Jane Yolen is an award-winning children's book author as well as a writer of adult science fiction and fantasy.She's earned the Caldecott-given for the most distinguished picture book, the Nebula-given to the most distinguished writing in the field of science fiction and fantasy, the Golden Kite-given by the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators, and the World Fantasy Award.She's written seven Commander Toad Adventures, including COMMANDER TOAD AND THE LONG VOYAGE HOME, COMMANDER TOAD AND THE PLANET OF THE GRAPES, COMMANDER TOAD AND THE SPACE PIRATES, and COMMANDER TOAD AND THE BIG BLACK HOLE.With dozens of books written in many genres, Jane Yolen is a great author to introduce to young readers.

COMMANDER TOAD AND THE PLANET OF THE GRAPES is an absolute blast to read out loud to young readers or pre-readers.The short, descriptive sentences push the story along at a frantic and fun pace, and the color and black and white illustrations are great fun for a young audience.

With all the interest young kids today have in space-based programs on Cartoon Network, books like the Commander Toad series will bridge the gap between movies, video games, and the written word.Jane Yolen is an exemplary entertainer for young readers and parents willing to endorse the habit of reading.

The planet is allergic to frogs and toads!
This is another silly outer-space book in the Commander Toad series, which my sons, ages 4 and 8, thoroughly ENJOY. In _Planet of the Grapes_, the crew arrives on an unknown planet only to discover that it grows huges grapes the moment they touchtheir feet to its surface.

Due to a chance accident with a loaded syringe,Doc Peeper with the green grass hair discovers that the planet is allergic to *them*. It is Lieutenant Lily's sneezes which give him the clue.He was about to inject her with antihistamine, which is the reason for the syringe.

Complicated plot, lots of funny stuff. These books are enjoyable to both kids and adults. ... Read more

Not a field guide ...
I recommend this book for young people.
It is easy to read and has nice pictures but it is not a field guide (the book is too wordy, large and heavy).

Great Book!
I love this book.I use it constantly and recommend it whenever I talk about frogs.It has great pictures and lots of useful information.I don't use this as a field guide so much as a reference book, although it does have helpful tips on identifying the frogs in the field.

Great book for the SouthEast
Possitives:
Great photos, and easy to follow breakdown of the Frogs and Toads of the SouthEast.

Negatives:
I ended up buying a second book that came with a CD of most of the frog calls.Had this book came with an audio cd of calls, I would not have needed to purchase a second book.

Note:I also own the "Snakes of the Southeast" and "Turtles of the Southeast" by the same authors... Also great books if your interested in identifying herps around the SouthEast. ... Read more

Product Description

The heart of this book consists of detailed systematic accounts of the known fossil frogs and toads (anurans) of North America and their localities. Extinct fossil frogs and toads are fully discussed and illustrated, and in some cases are re-diagnosed and re-described. For fossil taxa still living, the book gives the modern characteristics, ecological attributes, and modern ranges, and includes illustrations of diagnostic skeletal elements. The volume begins with an overview of the anurans and anuran studies, a general account of the skeleton and bones, and a discussion of the early evolution of the Anura, along with the formal classification of anuran taxonomic groups found in the North American fossil record. The third part of the book presents an epoch-by-epoch discussion of Mesozoic, Tertiary, and Pleistocene anurans, the classification and phylogeny of the anurans, and a comprehensive list of references.

Product Description
There's a frog on the log

in the middle of the bog.

A small, green frog

on a half-sunk log

in the middle of the bog....Amazon.com Review
You may already know an old lady who swallowed a fly, but you're about to meet her chief competition: "a frog on the log in the middle of the bog." Author Karma Wilson (Bear Snores On) teams up with illustrator Joan Rankin in a delightfully bouncy, rhythmic jaunt through the culinary exploits of said frog. Young readers will quickly get the hang of the story, as the amphibious protagonist swallows most of the insect population of a bog. Starting small ("He flicks ONE tick/ as it creeps up a stick"), he quickly works his way up: "ONE tick, TWO fleas, THREE flies (Oh my!),/ FOUR slugs (Ew, ugh!) in the belly of the frog/ on a half-sunk log/ in the middle of the bog." As the greedy frog’s belly grows, we are treated to a hilarious view of the claustrophobic quarters within. Is there any hope for these hapless bugs, or are they destined for digestion? Rankin’s watercolors are both beautiful and comical, appealing to readers of all ages. Highly recommended! (Ages 3 to 7) --Emilie Coulter ... Read more

Watch out for that...GATOR!
This book is a delightfully cute example of a children's book that just works all the way around.The illustrations are fun and fresh and intriguing and the rhymes are hilarious and catchy and just flow really nicely.Lots of children's books have a moral or a message for the children to learn or glean from, and maybe this one helps a child...count (?) but in the end it doesn't matter because this is just so much fun!Coming from a parent who has to read countless books countless times, this one is a keeper.In fact, I think I might read this one again tonight.How can you go wrong with a frog on a long in a bog?Throw in some nasty bugs and you have magic!

Cute story
Cute story!My two year old likes this book and so does my husband!

Froggy fun for over 3's
There's a frog on the log in the middle of the bog.

A small, green frog
on a half-sunk log
in the middle of the bog.

And so the frog proceeds to gobble up various creatures that increase in number. From a tick to five slimy snails. Yet that half-sunk log isn't what it seems, and when it suddenly rises, showing eyes, and JAWS, the frog loses his lunch as they escape while he hollers.

It's a fun romp with a hungry and rather greedy frog, and the increasing number of his lunch means that it's a book useful for counting too. The illustrations are dreamy watercolour depictions of bog life. These aren't my favourite style of illustrations, and they lack detail for the younger readers. I do prefer Wilson's collaborations with Chapman.

I find the rhythm a little laboured but it's captivating enough, and one that a parent can read a few times over. Not Karma Wilson's best in my opinion, but it is fun. I actually bought the book because my daughter likes frogs, but the lack of detail meant that the frogginess of the frog wasn't so obvious. Towards the end it barely resembles a frog. Also, the internal belly pictures are too abstract a concept for the younger ones.

My favourite element are the tiny details that are not a direct part of the story. Such as the flyrodrome or the beetle boats for hire.

My daughter (20 months), who 'reads' above her age, enjoys it although only occassionally picks it up herself. I do make a big deal of the every-growing frog. I think that perhaps an older child might get more out of it. Children that already love messing about in mud with slimy critters would likely love it.

I do recommend it, but for 3 years and older.

a bog of a time
We checked this book out from the library 3 times before I decided we should just own it.I love the art and my Daughter thinks it is such a funny story.She is 3 now.I would recommend it to parents of a 2-4 year old.

Our Froggy Favorite
our family of four has a weakness for frog stories and this one is by far our favorite. The illustrations are unique and attractive, which is actually what made me buy it. The lyrical style of the writing and the story are fun and silly. The fact that it's a counting book is just icing on the cake. ... Read more

Product Description

300 of the most abundant and familiar amphibians in nature.

From the Introduction: "A few acres of tropical forest in South America may contain as many as 60 species -- roughly the same number as in the whole of the United States."

This compact reference is a comprehensive visual resource with vibrant color photographs, expert text and detailed species profiles that describe the characteristics, habits, breeding, diet, habitat, distribution and conservation status of 300 of the world's frogs.

Full-page color photographs help identify species in the field, and data sidebars provide the latest knowledge and include genus, common and scientific names. For ease of identification, the extensive index lists frogs by both common and species names.

The authors include specific information on the order Anura, not a minor player in the natural world since it is the "canary in the mine" for our environment. Discovering and understanding such frogs and their necessary place in nature has never been more timely or important. 300 Frogs is a straightforward and authoritative introduction to these fascinating amphibians and an appealing, handy and useful resource for naturalists, amphibian enthusiasts and general readers.

exellent
this is an amazing book, it contains a lot of species profiles with their basic information very useful when you are looking for a reference or anything else related with frogs

Great book for the price
This is a great book for anyone, professional or not. Hard to encompass all of the species and varieties of frogs in the world into one book, but this one does a good job.And you can't beat the price.Good photos, good basic descriptions, I am very glad that I bought this book.

A must for anyone interested in frogs!
I have several books on frogs because my husband and I keep several species, but of all my books, and some are very expensive reference books, if I had to pick only one book to keep this would be the one. There is so much detailed information and it's all so well organized! And the pictures are awsome! This book is a keeper.

Very good information & photos
Despite its somewhat odd title, this book is surprisingly 'complete' in that it covers virtually all the families of frogs known to science (excluding fossil forms). There is an impressive amount of interesting information here, and I would even recommend it to professional zoologists/herpetologists. The image quality is also very good overall. Highly recommended for anyone interested in amphibians! ... Read more

great for my 5 year old
Finding other stories that interest my son besides "star wars," "captain underpants," and anything about cars is somewhat difficult.He loves the Commander Toad stories (and I appreciate the extra references that my son doesn't always understand).Truthfully I wish they had more of these at the library, as we go through them so quickly...but if I have to get through amazon, that's what I'll do...

Argh, Matey!
Boredom settles over the crew of the space ship STAR WARTS and Commander Toad has to do something quick.Lieutenant Lily, Mr. Hop, Jake Skyjumper and Doc Peepers are all unhappy.They've watched all the ship's movies-SPLASH GORDON, THE TOAD WARRIOR, INDIANA FROG AND THE LILY PAD OF DOOM-and read all the ship's books-ROBIN TOAD, THE LIZARD OF OZ, and SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN WARTS-and played a lot of croak-kay, leapfrog, and hopscotch.There is nothing to do and they're all going a little crazy.That all changes the day Commander Salamander and his pirate crew arrive.Commander Salamander boards STAR WARTS and takes everyone captive except for Doc Peepers.Only a little while after that, Commander Salamander makes Commander Toad Hop the Plank at sword point!Only Doc Peepers can save the day!

Fun to read out loud and filled with puns and sight gags really well drawn by Bruce Degen, COMMANDER TOAD AND THE SPACE PIRATES is a blast to share with young or reluctant readers.The sentences are short and choppy, driving the story on and filling the events with laughs.The pirate talk, "Yo-ho-ho, me slithery-slees!" is top-notch and will inspire young readers to quote the lines long after the book is finished-if an adult is willing to read the passages in a properly piratical dramatization.The solution to the pirates, once revealed, is hilarious and makes perfect sense even to pre-readers who understand story and set-up that comes in narrative repetition.

The Commander Toad series, all seven books, is recommended for imaginative young readers who have already been exposed to STAR WARS, STAR TREK, and various other science fiction based television shows and movies.Jane Yolen is one of the most entertaining authors for young minds out there.

A truly delightful children's book
Jane Yolen's "Commander Toad" series is a charming science fiction spoof, and an excellent children's book.The detailed, zany illustrations by Bruce Degen are the perfect complement to the witty textand off-the-wall characters.The test of any children's book is itsreception by actual children, and "Commander Toad and the SpacePirates" gets full marks there. It has been requested so many times bymy 5- and 3- year-old siblings that I can now recite it from memory.Thetext stands the test of many repetitions, and my five year old brother,just now learning to write, can often be heard to request "Mom, how doyou spell 'Commander Toad'?

Beautiful photography, but not much information . . .
This book did a good job of telling about the different families of anurans, but there was very little practical information for the first time frog keeper.It isn't too bad of an investment, though, if you are trying to figure out what kind of frog you have.

Great Pictures!
This is a good picture book which the kids just love to look at over and over.It is also fairly comprehensive on the "how-to's" of raising all kinds of frogs.

Wonderfull pictures,great info!
This is a nice soft cover book my 12 year old loves it. It it easy for kids and adults to understand. Lots of great pictures and overall information!Its a very popular book I sell on my we page "Frogs andAmphibians". I own and use this book.it Covers many types of frogs andtoads.

Frog and Toad Audio Collection
Both of my granddaughters love bedtime stories and they listen to CDs when they go to bed after Mom reads them stories.This is amongst their favorites.

Great collection
My 4 year old is addicted to audiobooks and this is an great addition to her ever-increasing library.The author does a great job of bring the characters to life.The sound effects are appropriate and the stories flow well. Unlike other audiobooks with the annoying 'ding' or long moments of silence, this collection keeps my daughters attention and her amusment.

Nicky Loved It
It's the best Commander Toad book!I like them all. They all are great.The monster in this one was cool.

Funny, funny science fiction for kids and their parents
Commander Toad is a delight.He's "bold and bright", though not quite as bright as he thinks.His crew (an amalgam of loose takes on Star Wars and Star Trek characters) puts up with his prideful ways, because he is, after all, a good leader.Together with his mixed-gender crew he gets into and out of a wonderful series of scrapes.This book is the first in the series.

Jane Yolen writes for kids.For example, when Commander and crew are threatened by a sea monster who makes it clear that they're about to be lunch, I asked my 4-year old what he thought would happen.

"Shoot him with a ray gun," he answered.

"I don't know," I said."I think that they'll find out that the monster's just lonely, and they'll make friends."

Turn the page, and BAM! Lt. Lily, Toad's female weapons master, is blasting away (to no effect).Thanks, Jane.Only you could make a story about a bunch of space-explorer frogs be true-to-life.

Jane Yolen also writes for the adults who read books to their kids.There's nearly a pun a page, and the Commander's ludicrous solutions to problems have a germ of genius unrestrained by the laws of physics that will have you shaking your head over his cleverness.

Now you can have three favorite Frog and Toad books together in one volume.Meet Frog and Toad as they discover the true meaning of friendship. Sometimes it is not so easy, like the day that Frog goes off by himself, leaving Toad to worry that he's lost his friend. But whether they're in Frog's garden or Toad's house, or even in Toad's unusual dream, Frog and Toad are always best friends.Frog and Toad are Friends, Days with Frog and Toad, and Frog and Toad Together are Arnold Lobel's most beloved legacy to young readers.

Happy times between friends...
My four-year-old boy loves these stories. My sixteen-year-old boy loved these stories when he was also that little. These are timeless stories about Frog and Toad. Toad is a more up-tight and edgy; Frog is more relaxed and easy-going. Together, they teach, through their adventures, simple and amusing tales about true friendship. After all, friendship is a very important thing in life, and the author dwells happily on many of the quiet times between friends such as sitting in front of a fire together drinking tea, or one friend sending another friend a letter just to let the person know how grateful he is that the other is his friend. These books are also great for kids just learning how to read. The book includes about twenty stories that can be read in sequence or in random order.

a must-have
I spotted this book in a local bookstore recently and, remembering the characters fondly from my own youth, bought a copy for my 3 1/2 year old. This version is three-in-one, a total of fifteen to twenty classic stories about important values such as bravery, the sweetness of friendship, willpower and indulgence, pessimism and hope, humility, getting angry and making amends, persistence in the face of derision, and so on, all told in a gently humorous, highly affectionate language that speaks in a way young children can readily understand. Hard to overstate the quality of this book both in content and delivery. Ten stars if I could.

Probably best suited for 2-7 years of age.

By the way, I'm not sure why this version is credited to Alyssa Satin Capucilli. It's the Arnold Lobel book through and through.

Ain't Nothin' Like Arnold Lobel for Beginning Readers!
I am an ESOL teacher and no matter what age or grade level I am teaching, I always have a few beginning readers.For beginning readers, there is no author as wonderful or necessary as Arnold Lobel.Frog and Toad seems to be every beginning reader's friend.They are entertaining characters and the stories are fun.The stories also introduce frequent sight words and reinforce them through exposure.One can be cynical about Arnold Lobel but I can tell you, he works!If students are willing to read his books, no matter what age they are, I guarantee they will get better and move on to higher level reading.Wonderful books and the best in beginning readers. ...
