Red-Eyed Tree Frog

This book wasn't as exciting for me but still informative. The reader for this book was really dull so I'd add more animation if I was to read it. I think it's really cool that this book has real pictures of the frog and not cartoon ones. It's important for students to see both. this book could be to read about a swamp or frog lesson or even used as a research tool. The language isn't difficult so I think it would be good for younger audiences. In reference to the guide, this book could teach and encourage a student to learn more about this frog or other animals.

This book gives information about a day in a red-eyed tree frog where the frog encounters some insects and animals that could be harmful to the little tree frog on its way to find something to eat. The tree frog only looks for food at night and sleeps through the day. During his hunt for something to eat, it ends up eating a moth and then the night is over and then it is on to sleep because it is day.

I liked this book because of the last two pages which goes more in depth about why the insects and animals are harmful to this little frog. It also goes more in depth on how it lives, can hang on leaves, and what it prefers to eat. I also like that the pictures are real versus illustrations.

Some extension ideas are to discuss with the show more class about different types of frogs, go out to the playground and look for frogs, color a worksheet of a frog or dissect a frog. show less

This book focuses on the habitat and diet of the red eyed tree frog. It could be used as a creative outlet for younger ages to act-out the verbs, and "move" like the predators in the book. Depending on how it is used it could easily suit ages up to 2nd grade. It's a simple read and has great pictures. It doesn't really have a plot though.

This book describes a night in the life of a red-eyed tree frog! The book incorporates amazing photographs of a red-eyed tree frog, the bugs they eat, and the predators they face! This is a great book for primary students.

In the Red-Eyed Tree Frog, the main idea of the text is what do Red-Eyed Tree Frogs eat. At the beginning, it show different animals in the rain forest that awake during the day, but the Red-Eyed Tree Frog sleep during the day. When the frog wakes up it is hungry. Throughout the story, the author will show pictures of different insects and reptiles. The reptiles were to big to eat, and the insects were not appetizing or they were to dangerous to eat. While the Frog is searching for food, a snake is slithering towards him. The frog quickly jumps away from the snake. After escaping the snake, the frog finds a moth and eats the insect.

Joy Cowley creates a simple text and clear pictures about a variety of species in the rain forest, including iguanas, macaws, and snakes. The book goes through the life of a frog, and all of it prey and what it preys on. The final pages offer a much more factual and interesting look at the book's perspective and what is reality.

Easy text about what a frog eats and animals that they must be careful of. The best part of this book was the fantastic pictures. Great beginner reader and for learning about frogs
