If the title of this book in the Science F.A.Q. series doesn’t reel them in, who knows what will. The answer to the titular question is, surprisingly, yes, it does rain frogs, but very rarely—it only happens when a powerful storm sucks ‘em up and strong winds hold them aloft. Then they fall back down “when the winds weaken.” Each spread of this busily designed book covers a different topic related to our planet, with four corresponding questions. “A large shake, please” deals with the earth’s movement and poses the question, “Can animals predict earthquakes?” This too is true, and speaking of frogs, the species has been known to vacate ponds prior to earthquakes. Other topics covered include gravity and magnetic forces, the sun’s power, and weather patterns. With clever headings, questions kids would actually ask, and simple, easy-to-follow text, this will pull scientifically curious kids who may follow up with the concluding further reading suggestions. Hand to reluctant readers and use to foster STEM literacy. Grades 2-5. --Ann Kelley
