Excellent book about how frogs came to be and many engaging facts about frogs.
Beautifully illustrated.

What a fascinating and thought provoking book for young minds!

A very accessible way of introducing bigger scientific concepts like the Big Bang and Evolution to our younger learners.

The illustrations are colourful and full of life. I love that even though they are catered to a younger audience, they don’t shy away from being scientific and giving children a possible first introduction into elements they will recognise later on in their learning career, such as atoms, cells, and microscopic organisms.

All round a wonderful book!

Frog by Isabel Thomas is a curiosity of a book in that first impressions are that it is going to be about the life of a frog but this read takes young learners and readers in the direction of an amazing journey through the evolution of a species.

Starting at the "Big Bang" and travelling though millennia to the formation of the planet ,the first living cells and the gradual evolution of water based creatures leading to amphibians , the book explores how life began leading to the Frog as well as the universe itself.

Daniel Egnéus' illustrations are beautiful and Isabel Thomas' prose is pitch perfect for enquiring minds- although some vocabulary might need a little explanation.

This is a great book for young naturalists, classroom learning exploring frogs or young readers who enjoy learning new facts.

A beautiful information book that will open young minds and one that could be a useful classroom resource
