A frog finds a book of spells and hopes to use one to become a handsome prince; readers must flip this book's pages, some of which have been cut in half horizontally, to complete the spell. Fairy-tale fans will cheer the story's final twist and the handsome mixed-media art, but they may or may not get the book's somewhat cumbersome interactivity.
