Amphibian Groups
Many amphibians, including frogs, salamanders, and caecilians, find strength in numbers. Some amphibians form groups to mate, reproduce, and care for their young. For others, being part of a group provides warmth and safety. Amphibian Groups explores how and why different amphibian species form groups. Easy-to-read text, vivid images, and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources, and an index.

Amphibian Groups - Booklist
In this survey of amphibians from the Strength in Numbers: Animal Groups series (6 titles), readers will meet northern red-legged frogs, salamanders, caecilians, and poison dart frogs. Each of these categories receives its own chapter, focusing on two specific species in the main text and highlighting others in smaller purple info boxes. Readers will learn interesting facts related to these creatures’ size, colors, group names, habitats, and life cycle, which are supported by excellent photos and illustrations, such as a life-cycle diagram and range map.
Thoughtfully chosen quotes, alternative perspectives on source material, fast facts, critical thinking exercises, and writing activities all boost opportunities for reader engagement. Younger readers can enjoy the essential facts, while the detailed information can foster a deeper
understanding of amphibians for older readers and future herpetologists.
