Entertainment and education for everyone! August 7, 2007
Now I know what some of those strange sounds are out there and WHO's making them! I enjoy listen to this in my car as I'm stuck in traffic. This CD and the book are both fun - young and old will enjoy them. My extremely active son and my more laid back mother both have enjoyed these. It's a winner!
I also purchased the Birds CD/Book and the Insects CD/Book. These, too, are an excellent purchase. The Insects CD actually put my son to SLEEP in the car!
Calling All Frogs! August 12, 2005

The real value in this compact field guide is not in the very clear photos and descriptions, but is in the remarkably clear and useful recordings of amphibian calls. Since frogs and toads are active at night, they are generally identified by their calls - and this is the most useful guide I have obtained. Great addition to any naturalist's field guide collection!

...which is why the previous reviewer did not find the Pacific Treefrog...
 What about Pacific Treefrog? March 31, 2001
7 out of 12 found this review helpful
The CD is very well organized. The tone qualities are very good. As an amateur herpetologist, I deeply appreciate this audio archive of North American frogs and toads, especially the rana, bufo and hyla familes. Amphibians are going extinct and/ or disappearing rapidly from our planet. Mr. Elliot has compiled such an extensive audio library with great care and detail. All nature lovers and herpetologists must get this tape.Nonetheless, Mr. Elliot failed to include the most widespread frog here in California... the Pacific Treefrog. This is the most well-known as the Hollywood frog. It is used widely to underscore background nature sounds in films.
