Beautiful illustrations and great story about facing your fears. The story is a bit too long for the preschool set.

Little Frog loves the green of spring and summer. Now that it’s autumn, all the leaves are turning colors and that scares her. She doesn’t like it and she misses what made her feel safe. Her mom and dad both encourage her to face her fears and so she does eventually. It is scary along the way, but she ends up finding the beauty and fun in the new season.
This is a great book on facing your fears. It’s a great reminder for me at this moment as all my life is changing once again. It’s great for the kids too who have plenty of fears even if they say they aren’t scared during the day.
The niece was in the mood for a story and she appreciated this one. Sometimes she can face her fears and sometimes she needs some help. She liked Little Frog a lot and she was glad to see her face her fears. She gave this 4 stars. The nephew wondered what was so scary about colored leaves and why that would be scary. “What’s so scary about leaves, they’re just leaves?” He thought frog was stupid and he gave this 2 stars. He’s gotten opinionated lately.
A great beginning book. I love the colors and the artwork here. It’s a beautiful book.

A little frog is brave as she faces her fears (colors and sounds). I love how this book can apply to young children with disabilities. The fear of colors and sound is real, it's sensory. Not a quick read but a good one.

A beautifully illustrated story about tackling something new. In this case, the "new" is scary, but mostly innocuous. I found myself thinking as I read about all the "new" things one can do, or the new situations one can be in, that are inherently dangerous.
But to remain positive, this book should be a helpful look at when being open to new experiences ends with a positive result.
