(2) 4-6 In this informative and beautiful presentation, Dewey's colored pencil drawings feature many different species of these rainforest creatures. The simple, clear text describes physical characteristics and the unusual behaviors surrounding care of eggs and nurturing the young. Explained in detail are the traditional methods still used by hunters to extract the poison from the frogs for use in blowpipe darts.
