Follow the adventures of a frog who is rather too naïve and rather too talkative, in a story narrated by Francine Vidal and humorously illustrated by Elodie Nouhen. “Hip, hop, off he goes.” But leaving his pond isn’t quite so simple; flies are somewhat tasteless but as for eating ants, leaves, grass or even maggots – not on your life, thinks the frog! This is a very entertaining and educational book for the youngest children, to read and to play at night before sleeping.more
