The Frog Who Wanted to See the Sea

32 pp. | Creative Editions | October, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-1-56846-188-5 $17.95
(4) K-3 Alice the frog satisfies her restless curiosity by leaving the pond and going to sea on a lily-pad float, where a kindly angler's potion mysteriously saves her life. The abstruse story leaves unanswered questions, perhaps deliberately. Clean-lined illustrations in a limited palette suit the understated text, suggesting Alice's smallness amidst the vastness of her surroundings.
Reviewer: Frieda F. Bostian
