If you've read the Frog and Toad books, and especially if you've read tehm multiple times to small humans, you'll probably find this seriously amusing!

Toad is one of my favorite literary characters ever. I found this book in a bookstore last week, and am so glad I pulled the trigger on buying it. This book is light, fun and has a modern twist on a classic literary character. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️highly recommend.
