Frogs are adorable creatures that are very much like us (they have almost as many bones, and eat, sleep, reproduce and play) and deserve, like every living being, compassionate care and respect. This children's picture book has 18 color reproductions of original oil paintings and a semi-fictional but plausible story having to do with a family not too different than our own.
