I first came across "Frog In Love" as a pre-school teacher. I was asked to read it for our Valentines Day celebration. I was deeply touched by Max Velthuijs's amazing ability to tenderly convey such a hopeful message that both young children, as well as adults can grasp easily. My husband and I were very much like frog and duck when we were good friends. Ironically, just as frog meets with an accident, so did my husband and just like duck, I was able to help him and we admitted our deep affection for eachother. Naturally I went and bought the story for my husband and read it to him. When I got to the last page, and read the words "Love knows no boundaries" we both had tears in our eyes. Someday when we have our children, we'll read this lovely story to them!

This is such a cute book! My 2 year old loves it. Frog is in love with Duck and goes out of his way to show her. It's not a topic you usually find in children's books and it's sweet. The illustrations have lovely rich colors too.

We love all of the books in Max Velthuijs' Frog Series. Our all-time favorite is "Frog is Frog"--but this one rates high up there as well!

A Frog and a Duck - love knows no boundaries. Anyone who has ever experienced that sick feeling of falling for someone - where you can't eat, sleep, think or talk will love this book! Frog in his red and white board shorts falls in love with white duck - a book to explain the beauty of love to young children and a book to give to the one you've fall in love with.

This is a wonderfully written story about Frog who is in love with Duck. The morale of the story is "love knows no boundaries"--color doesn't matter. :)

This must be it : the greatest love-story ever written. Any age ! Love can't be love without a violin playing frog...

As a teacher, this book is a great way to start discussions of difference and sensitivity with my class. A great love story for any age!
