this book is great Can't be rough with it as it has small parts but very informational My son loved it
My son loves the "Uncover a...." series February 18, 2008

My 5-year old son loves the "Uncover a..." series, especially the ones about animals. I agree that they are interesting, informative and refreshingly interactive books. I only wish that the parts were a bit more sturdy, especially the thin veins and arteries, which could be made of a more flexible, plastic-coated wire, rather than the brittle think plastic-only construction of which they are made.
Croakin' Cool! October 31, 2007

As I said, "Croakin' cool!" I'm buying this book today after having spent a few minutes with it in the "conventional bookstore" yesterday where the price was a little too pricey for an impulse buy. Now, with the impulse under control, I'm buying the book (and others in the series)with a clear head and for a serious purpose... my curious 6-year old. This book will be fun and interesting for you and a great mind experience for your curious child.
BTW, The other books in the series that I'll order today are: Uncover the Human, Uncover the Shark, Uncover the Tarantula and Uncover the Alligator.
Ciao,

This is a valuable resource for a child, teen or possibly a frog-delighting adult:) I was impressed with its clear format, language and the clever puzzle type model of the make-up of a frog. It says on the front from age 8 up but my 4 and 7 year old devour it greedily and have absorbed much (gruesome) fact on these creatures. Highly recommended from a biological and anatomical point of view.
