Springtime with Frog and Toad

Frog and Toad stories have delighted both children and adults for more than fifty years, celebrating friendship and life in the most joyful and heart-warming way.

This charming collection, which brings together three springtime stories, is the perfect seasonal gift for children.

Once upon a time there were two good friends, a frog and a toad . . .

In these timeless and very funny spring-themed stories, Frog and Toad are always there for each other. From ensuring that Toad wakes up in time for spring, singing and reading to flower seeds in the hope that they’ll grow to spending alone time together. These two loveable characters really are the best of friends.
