This is part of the I Can Read series. Written by Lulu Delacre, two lizard-looking characters Rafi and Rosi go on three different adventures in three separate chapters. The text is complicated and would require a late transitional reader to read independently.
The pictures are typical cartoons with a lot of movement and action.

Brother and sister Coqui frogs explore the natural environment of Puerto Rico, including the iron content of sand, bioluminescence in Parguera Bay, mangroves, and hermit crabs. Cute anthropomorphized frogs amid colorful, animal-filled illustrations frame simple 1st or 2nd grade text. Includes additional information about each of the scientific concepts at the back. Curricular connections: science/biology/ecology, Puerto Rico, transition to independent reading.
