Gracie rocks!, November 18, 2008 By  Donna M. Hasson (Doylestown, PA USA)    What a great way to introduce children to the rainforest. They'll meet several different species of rainforest inhabitants while getting the message that everyone has their own special qualities and characteristics, and its important to be exactly who you are! The drawings are enchanting and Gracie's sweet smile will charm you. There's a great "background" section at the end of the book with more detailed information about the rainforest and the species represented in this book. We can't wait for the next book in the "stories from the rainforest" series.

Delightful picture book, November 17, 2008

By	Karen Rice (Spring Hill, FL)

Gracie, the glass tree frog is a delightful picture book. The characters draw the reader into the rain forest. There are two pages at the end of the book with information about the rainforest and glass tree frogs. The book was an interesting read for my elementary students. The authors are wonderful to meet in person and do a great presentation for elementary students about their book and glass tree frogs.
