Leaps and Bounce: A Growing Up Story    by Susan Hood & Matthew Cordell Order:  USA  Can Hyperion, 2016 (2016) Hardcover     Reviewed by Bob Walch In this humorous picture book for youngsters three years of age and older, you'll follow the process as hundreds of little eggs found in a pond undergo the transformation that will eventually produce robust, active frogs. Double page spreads featuring the changes that take place - from egg to tadpole to adult amphibian - and a rhymed narrative make this a fun and informative read. The humorous pictures will hold a young reader's attention and the author shows the changes occurring without getting too technical, which would be a turn off for the younger set. An excellent book that uses a light touch to explain a frog's metamorphosis Leaps and Bounce offers a nice way of getting a child interested in some of the wonderful mysteries that occur in nature.
