PS
In a similar format to her previous books (Hop; Fetch; Nest), Hurley's latest story consists of one verb on each spread. This time, she explains the journey of a frog from egg to tadpole, then adult and egg-laying parent. Hurley's engaging digital illustrations in simple, striking shapes provide the necessary context. A lengthy author's note offers information on a frog's life cycle.
