If your kid is into animals or you're looking for a simple nonfiction book for early readers, this one hits the mark. The photos of the poison dart frog are bright and eye-catching, showing off those crazy neon colors these little frogs are famous for. It's super short at just 118 words, so it's perfect for kindergarteners and first graders who are starting to read on their own or for a quick bedtime read-together. The book covers what they eat, where they live, and how they use their bright colors as a warning to predators kids tend to find that "danger means bright colors" idea pretty fascinating.
