Uncover the secrets of metamorphosis. Watch as a toad begins as a tiny black dot and becomes a full grown toad.
This informative non-fiction book is real photographs taken by Doug Wechsler himself. He talked about the process and how long it took him to capture these images. He spent hours to capture the perfect image. It does show the male and females reproducing but it’s done very tactfully. The text is simple and informative. I found this book very insightful and fun.
