Scholastic True or False: Amphibians
This colorful book introduces amphibians through a gamelike format and a clearly written text, illustrated with excellent photographs. Each right-hand page includes a large photo, a simple statement such as “Salamanders are fussy eaters,” and the question “True or False?” in bold, colorful letters. Readers turn the page to find the answer as well as a paragraph of explanation and another illustration. The discussion covers frogs, toads, salamanders, and caecilians. Like other volumes in the consistently fine True or False series, this book is a natural for browsing, while the index makes it a handy resource for short reports as well. --Carolyn Phelan
