very good story about a little girl who collects some frog eggs, and brings them home to watch them hatch, turn to tadpoles, then frogs. She then releases them. Filled with froggy facts and illustrations.

I (and my daughter) love this book. It's a delightful story about a little girl and her mother watching tadpoles grow into frogs. The book contains accurate information about natural science, and it shows how kids can learn about tadpoles and frogs while still taking good care of the frogs and their ecosystem.
