Summary

Tiny colorful frogs seem like they'd make the cutest pets-until you learn that they're poisonous! In this riveting volume, readers head into the rainforest to meet tiny amphibians with a most deadly adaptation. They'll learn where frog poison comes from and how perhaps just 0.0000004 ounce is enough to kill an adult man! They'll also find out about the newly discovered species of venomous frogs that inject poison using their spiny head. Vivid photographs highlight the beauty of these creatures, while text stresses the need to keep a safe distance from all such fierce frogs.
