"There’s a lot of drama in this charming story about making friends and overcoming fears. "
A Julia Eccleshare Pick of the Month April 2024
When the huge storm tosses Little Frog into the old tree stump he is initially terrified. Everyone knows that a Big Scary Thing with bright yellow eyes lives in that stump so Little Frog is sure that he will be gobbled up.
But instead, Little Frog finds he is held safely in a warm embrace alongside the Big Scary Thing’s own little ones. When the whole tree stump is blown over by the storm, Little Frog, the Big Scary Thing and all the little ones it is taking care of are tossed into the river. Little Frog remembers how he was looked after and knows that he must help his new friends. Little Frog finds being friends is much better than having big fears!
Discover that a little bit of kindness can bring an entire community together in a crisis. The frog family love their home on the riverbank, but they know to always stay away from the old tree stump – because a Big Scary Thing lives in there. When a huge storm comes and his friends and family are swept away, Little Frog is blown right into the terrifying stump . . . but what he finds inside changes his community forever.
