About the Book

From the common frog and toad to the fire salamander and legless caecilian, take a close-up look at the amazing amphibians that live on our planet.

Eyewitness Amphibian is the ultimate children's guide to these cold-blooded vertebrates. Learn about the history of amphibians, where they live, their exceptional camouflage techniques, and how some amphibians transform from a tadpole to an adult. See a frog leap and catch its prey, find out which toad stands on its toes to scare away predators, and discover how some salamanders can breathe without lungs.

This updated edition includes the latest scientific discoveries and a new "eyewitness" feature—fascinating firsthand accounts from experts in the field. Part of the best-selling Eyewitness series, this book is a treasure trove of knowledge that will both entertain and inform animal lovers.
