The Beast Beelzebufo

This picture book of rhyming verse with colored illustrations for preschool children is about a giant frog that really existed. The devil frog was probably the largest frog ever to live on earth. Dr. David Krause and his team of scientists discovered its fossil remains on the island of Madagascar and named it Beelzebufo. This extinct frog probably weighed as much as a large baking potato, but was three times as long from its head to its toes.
