(4) K-3 Disappearing Acts series. These slim books examine the tree frogs and emerald boas camouflaged within the wetlands and rainforests. Basic facts such as the subjects' habitats, life cycles, anatomies, and survival techniques are explained in simple, sometimes vague text ("An emerald boa can stay in the same position for long periods of time"). The glossy photos are the most appealing element of the series. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Disappearing Acts titles: Green Tree Frogs and Emerald Boas.
