I love India Rose Crawford‘s Frog and Toad pictures so very much!!
“The Toad began to bang his head against the wall.“
I like how this book provides me with the opportunity to talk about the concept of friendship with my students and how to support others in times of needs.
Arnold Lobel‘s Frog and Toad Are Friends (1970) is a heartwarming collection of stories about friendship, kindness, and everyday adventures. Lobel‘s simple, expressive illustrations perfectly complement the text, using soft lines and gentle colors to capture emotion and personality. The art enhances the humor and warmth, showing subtle gestures and expressions that bring Frog and Toad‘s friendship vividly to life.

And not directly literary, but as I accidentally stuck my hand in poo when taking this photo of a frog in one of the gardens, I feel I paid too high a price not to share it with as many people as possible...
