The story of an expedition in search of the world's rarest and most exotic amphibians. On August 9, 2010, 33 teams from 21 countries were dispatched to search for the Lost Frogs identified by Conservation International. On their list were a host of species including, in the top ten most wanted, the Rio Pescado Stubfoot Toad, found only in Ecuador - which was to prove a triumphant rediscovery. Several months, a number of key rediscoveries - such as the Elegant Tropical Frog, last seen in 1937 and the Chalazodes Bubble-nest Frog - last seen in 1874 and two new species later, the Search for Lost Frogs had generated more than 650 news articles in 20 countries and over a billion potential viewers. Author Robin Moore was responsible for spearheading the Search for Lost Frogs and coordinating the teams. He also co-led two expeditions to Colombia and Haiti. In Colombia in search of the Mesopotamia Beaked Toad, the steamy jungles of the Choco yielded not the desired species but a brand new one - the Mr. Burns Toad, so-called because of an uncanny resemblance to the Simpsons' character; the species was selected as one of Time magazine's top ten new species of 2010. In Haiti the team found six frogs last seen 20 years before, including the Ventriloqual Frog, named for its ability to throw its voice. This fascinating new book tells the story of the expedition - its highs and lows, discoveries and failures and the campaign's ongoing work. Despite the campaign, one third of the world's amphibians remain threatened with extinction. Most of the species searched for were not found. But those that were provide a glimmer of hope. Understanding why these species have survived when many others have not should help us understand what makes these species different. In Search of Lost Frogs is a story of perseverance, disappointment, rediscovery, resilience, but ultimately of hope, written with passion and illustrated with the author's superb photographs.

● Book Introduction An exciting forest story from the author\'s imagination! Ribbit the frog\'s first adventure, looking for the golden apple: a journey into an imaginary world. Ribbit the frog finds a beautiful apple tree in the green forest. He is so happy and decides to pick the apple. But suddenly, scary Parrot appears and claims that the golden apple is his own. Ribbit the frog is sad, but the story gets more interesting when his guardian Unicorn appears to comfort him. Will there be peace in the forest? Can Ribbit the frog and Parrot become friends? ● Publisher\'s Review Anyone can be friends even if they look different. A picture book for children who want to make friends, \"In Search of Golden Apples: Ribbit the Frog\'s Forest Story\" Affinity Universe\'s second picture book series, \"In Search of Golden Apples: Ribbit the Frog\'s Forest Story\" has been published. The series combines the best of web design and picture books to create a unique style and atmosphere. \"In Search of Golden Apples: Ribbit the Frog\'s Forest Story\" is a picture book for children who want to make friends. They learn about \"what is true friendship\" through the situations they can experience in a friendship and the courage to stand up for a friend. It shows that, no matter how different their looks, heights, or personalities are, anyone can be friends, as long as they are considerate of each other. What is true friendship? A story of friendship that breaks the framework of the law of the jungle. Parrot sees the golden apple on the apple tree, which is a shared asset of the forest animal friends, and claims that it is \"his.\" We see a greedy character through three scenes where he continuously bullies his friends until he takes it for himself. However, the guardian Unicorn, who is much larger than Parrot, helps Ribbit the frog get what he wants. True friendship that breaks the framework of the law of the jungle is depicted through the image of strong Unicorn who stands up for a weak friend and corrects Parrot by pointing out his mistakes. ● Author Introduction ISABELLA LEE Isabella Lee, a 7-year-old writer from Australia, is a graduate of Affinity Universe Design School.

Recent estimates suggest that nearly 3 million people in the US alone keep an amphibian or reptile as a pet. YouTube videos with odes to cane toads are ubiquitous. And yet amphibians and reptiles also keep extermination companies in business, and are reviled by many. These emotions pose great challenges to the conservation of these species, just as their populations in the natural world are in great decline. It can be quite hard to inspire stewardship of a tomato toad in the same way that one can more generally charismatic fauna like pandas and polar bears. In response, herpetologists have created large-scale programs such as Amphibian Ark, the umbrella organization behind the Year of the Frog campaign, http: //www.amphibianark.org/, to educate and enthrall citizens with the charm of the more slimy species of the planet. Few herpetologists have contributed more to the conservation of amphibians and reptiles than Marty Crump, a renowned expert on declining amphibians. This manuscript is her ode to the toad, a masterful compilation of science and narrative centering on human relations with amphibians and reptiles across the globe. An intrepid explorer and skilled writer, Crump has gathered stories and myths and paired them with natural history to give a wonderful view of how essential amphibians and reptiles are to our well being. Using symbolism, folklore, and science, the manuscript also explores the conservation consequences of our complicated amorous and vexed affair with snakes, frogs, toads and other herpetofauna.

“A huge, beautiful compendium of 600 frogs from around the world, from the famed poison-arrow variety on up to the intriguingly named plaintive rain frog.” —Wired With over 7,000 known species, frogs display a stunning array of forms and behaviors. A single gram of the toxin produced by the skin of the Golden Poison Frog can kill 100,000 people. Male Darwin’s Frogs carry their tadpoles in their vocal sacs for sixty days before coughing them out into the world. The Wood Frogs of North America freeze every winter, reanimating in the spring from the glucose and urea that prevent cell collapse. The Book of Frogs commemorates the diversity and magnificence of all of these creatures, and many more. Six hundred of nature’s most fascinating frog species are displayed, with each entry including a distribution map, sketches of the frogs, species identification, natural history, and conservation status. Life-size color photos show the frogs at their actual size—including the colossal seven-pound Goliath Frog. Accessibly written by expert Tim Halliday and containing the most up-to-date information, The Book of Frogs will captivate both veteran researchers and amateur herpetologists. As frogs increasingly make headlines for their troubling worldwide decline, the importance of these fascinating creatures to their ecosystems remains underappreciated. The Book of Frogs brings readers face to face with six hundred astonishingly unique and irreplaceable species that display a diverse array of adaptations to habitats that are under threat of destruction throughout the world. “If you are a serious (and I mean serious) fan of the frog, you are in for a real treat.” —Boing Boing
