This book is a collection of 3 Frog and Toad books. My five year old son loves to hear the different adventures of these two good buddies. As a parent, I enjoy reading these stories aloud, they are well-written and teach children about friendship and being kind to one another. There is good use of humor in these stories and new readers as well as adults will smile inside as they read.

Frog and Toad are Friends: Spring, The Story, A Lost Button, A Swim, The Letter -- Frog and Toad Together: A List, The Garden, Cookies, Dragons and Giants, The Dream -- Frog and Toad All Year: Down the Hill, The Corner, Ice Cream, The Surprise, Christmas Eve
I thought I'd add this list for those looking for a particular title. Gotta love Frog and Toad- buy this and Days With Frog & Toad to have the complete collection!

Why do I love Frog and Toad? I'm not really sure. Not much really happens in these stories. The illustrations are beautiful but rather small. The eponymous friends carry on their friendship through mild misunderstandings and misadventures, always ready to forgive each other and forget. These gentle stories are among my favorite kids' books. I have fond memories of Frog and Toad from my childhood, and I never tire of re-reading them to my 4-year-old daughter. She seems to like them, too.

My seven year old son is not nearly as thrilled with reading as his mother, but at last we have found a collection that he can't get enough of. Frog and Toad are the perfect bedtime characters. The stories are simple and sweet, and my son tells me that they make him feel "warm and cozy". The reading level is appropriate for him as a second grader. And even my four-year-old will settle in to listen to the latest tales of Frog and Toad. This is a must-have collection!

I teach kindergarten, and my students absolutely love Frog and Toad. They can't wait to hear another story, and they ask me to read them over and over again. They are always surprised to find out that their parents read Frog and Toad as well. Frog and Toad are fantastic!!!

I read these stories as a child, and now I'm reading them to my own kids. I'm delighted that they love them as much as I did, because I think these stories convey a sense of true friendship through unique storytelling and a comforting pace. The quirks of each story continue to delight us, no matter how many times we have read them!

I was very excited to find this treasury, and excited when I received it to see that it's very well done. Good size, hardcover, large pictures, large text, great selection of stories.

When I saw the price of the book I thought no way it was that cheap and would be in good condition but when I saw they were 98% positive it was in good condition I just had to try it. When we got it my wife and I were really suprised that it was in such great shape it is a book we love and we love the condition it came in. There were no bent pages it looked like a brand new book and it really looked like no one had touched it or even used it. So we really wanted a book that looked like new and wasn't in bad condition so our daughter could have it for years to come and it was exactly what we hoped for and wanted it to be.

Frog and Toad Treasury might be one of the best books I've ever read -- and I don't even have children yet. I am mesmorized by how these two pals get into the darndest situations -- and yet remain the best of friends. Sometimes I wish I could be a third little amphibian pal -- hopping along with the two of them as they kicked back and enjoyed life. I laughed, I cried, and then I read them again.

God I love those two little buggers.
