Product Description

Review
"The combination of frog illustrations and witty text works beautifully, so as soon as you finish it you'll find yourself flicking back to enjoy this cautionary tale all over again." -- "Evening Standard"

"From the Trade Paperback edition."

Product Description
Two frogs are sitting on a lily pad and one of them has a stick. The stick, he says, is to beat off the dog. But there is no dog- yet. So begin the trials of this hapless pair whose adventures build to a brilliant conclusion. A unique book with all the qualities of a timeless fable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Two Frogs - a really funny read!!, 3 Feb 2004
I bought this book for my 2-year old son who loves Frogs and the first time I read it to him I actually laughed out loud.

The story is all about two frogs sitting on a lily pad in the middle of a large pond. One frog is holding a stick which he intends to use for protection. I won't give the story away but a lengthy discussion about the stick follows with a hilareous outcome.

Great, life-like and comical illustrations and beautifully written, this is a fabulous book suitable for all pre-school or early readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars not just a funny tale, 21 Jul 2004
By A. Craig "Amanda Craig" (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Two Frogs (Paperback)
A really wonderul book, this is not just the simple, beautifully illustrated story it appears to be. It's about fear. Should you worry about what will happen and carry a big stick, like one frog, or laugh it off as improbably like the other frog? The two friends are both right, as it turns out....

5.0 out of 5 stars Howling with laughter, 25 Aug 2004
By J. S. Hardman "Consultant software developer ... (Near London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This review is from: Two Frogs (Paperback)
Two Frogs arrived yesterday so both my wife and I read it last night. We howled with laughter. Excellent illustrations, excellent build-up and timing. The picture of the pike might be a bit scary for very sensitive children, but most will love it.
