Night of the Spadefoot Toads


Have you ever had to move across the country in the middle of a school year? Such is the unfortunate plight of Ben Moroney. He does not like anything about his new town or his class in Massachusetts until he becomes interested in the marshy wildlife in his own backyard. Find out about the amazing toad that you might only see once a year...if you're lucky. This multi-faceted novel by Bill Harley is an interesting glimpse into backyard ecology.

What have you seen in your own backyard?
