Description
In A New Frog, Jenny watches a pond through spring and summer and witnesses six stages in the life cycle of a leopard frog. Children will enjoy reading the cumulative, sing-song verse patterned after "The House that Jack Built," and then peering under the flaps to learn interesting science facts. This book in the My First Look at series also contains a note to parents suggesting ways of exploring nature -- without disturbing it.

Editorial Review
Folded out, the horizontally enlarged page carries a more detailed, informative text, which better describes the life cycle and metamorphosis of the frog. Well-executed watercolor paintings illustrate this effective introductory book.
