I like how it includes the frog life cycle.

Babamın vıraklayarak okuduğu kitap. Güzeldi, değişim falan geçiriyor. Sevdim. İribaş diye bir şey ilk kez duydum saçmaydı. Resimleri güzel, hep mavi.

Nice pictures, not much text. The text isn't bad, but it isn't stellar either. I'd have liked the book better if it used fewer made up words (pondskater instead of water strider, "jelly eggs" were what the frog eggs were called, ugh).

3.5 Stars A very fun book about the pond. Beautiful pictures! A fun little read!
