Description
Here is a fun armchair journey through the rapidly shrinking world of amphibians. Frogs and other amphibians are rapidly going extinct. It is believed that 500 of the 6,000 known species will become extinct within the next 10 years. This book is loaded with original Ripley’s Believe It or Not! cartoons, and fun to-the-point facts and trivia about amphibians that will both educate and amuse the reader. Created in 2008 to celebrate the Year of the Frog, all proceeds from this book will be going to various world-wide frog foundations for study and research. Tim O’Brien is an award-winning photo-journalist who has chronicled the business-side and human-side of the outdoor entertainment industries, including amusement parks, carnivals, circuses, sideshows and fairs, for more than 40 years.
