PreS-K–Two die-cut eyes stare out from the book’s cover. One of the eyes becomes a frog egg, and readers are taken through a frog’s life cycle. Scientific information and charming illustrations will have young naturalists rooting for the frog’s survival. Prediction-provoking questions preceding page turns tap into critical thinking skills with support from boldly colored illustrations.
VERDICT Vibrant colors and engaging use of die-cuts will have young children learning while being completely entertained with this well-designed title.
