the story of a magnificent Australian green tree frog.

The book's language and format are designed to appeal to young children from the role play reading stage to the experimental/early reading stage through the following strategies:
- Engage young children in the production and recognition of sounds.
- Recognition of early sight words
- Develop their vocabulary through rich descriptive language
- Develop recognition of text patterns to enhance early reading behaviors
- Develop an understanding of contractions
- Provide an enjoyable experience with a text which is fun to both read and view
- Improve comprehension through story prediction
- Excite the young reader's natural interest in science
- Providing appropriate science diagrams on "Parts of a Frog" and "Life Cycle of Frogs" for students to discuss, interpret & copy
- Encourage young children to care for endangered species and their habitats.

Reading to Children
Reading aloud to your child on a daily basis is the most important activity which will help in the development of early literacy skills.
Read to your child from birth.
Make a habit of special reading times - a time when you can have fun bonding with your child through the magic of books.
