Book Reviews
Review of 'Puddock's Pond' by Professor Trevor Beebee, University of Sussex
This delightful book is a well-written guide for youngsters learning about wildlife conservation. The text, starring three children, is focussed on helping frogs in gardens. Central to the story is the creation of a pond in which frogs and toads can lay their eggs and the subsequent growth and metamorphosis of tadpoles. Altogether a great read, thoroughly recommended.
