Book Synopsis



La estrella de este estimulante y deslumbrante libro es la rana arbórea de ojos rojos del bosque tropical costarricense. Con su conteo regresivo, este libro cautivador es ideal para leer en voz alta o como fuente de referencia.

En lo más profundo del bosque tropical de Costa Rica, diez pegajosos huevos de rana se aferran a una hoja. Solo nueve eclosionan. Solo ocho renacuajos acaban en el agua que está debajo. ¿Qué tendrán que hacer para sobrevivir, llegar a ser adultos y comenzar el ciclo de nuevo? Esta colorida introducción a la metamorfosis de la rana, bellamente diseñada, se asoma al hábitat de este animal y de sus depredadores con ilustraciones que muestran el proceso de competencia y selección natural. Los co-creadores Tony Piedra y Mackenzie Joy han elaborado un deslumbrante recorrido de la vida de uno de los tesoros de la naturaleza, la rana arbórea de ojos rojos. El apéndice invita a los naturalistas principiantes a aprender cosas asombrosas sobre la rana arbórea, repasar las páginas para descubrir otras especies costarricenses y explorar la bibliografía.

Deep in the tropical forest of Costa Rica, ten sticky frog eggs cling to a leaf. Only nine eggs hatch. Only eight tadpoles wind up in the water below. What will it take to survive the countdown to adulthood and begin the cycle again? This beautifully designed, color-drenched introduction to frog metamorphosis peeks at this animal's habitats and predators as it illustrates competition and natural selection. Cocreators Mackenzie Joy and Tony Piedra have crafted a dazzling spin on the life of one of nature's darlings, the red-eyed treefrog. Back matter invites budding naturalists to discover even more treefrog facts, revisit the pages to spot other Costa Rican species, and check out a bibliography.
