A Toad-ally Terrific Tale!,
By
This review is from: Hoptoad (Hardcover)
Award-winning author Jane Yolen offers few words (43 total) but plenty of suspense. Hoptoad and his traveling buddies, a skinny lizard and a deceptively speedy tortoise, must scamper across a wide highway to avoid a mammoth red pickup. ("Truck coming. Heavy load. Toad hop. Toad hop!") Karen Lee Schmidt's watercolors loom larger-than-life: reptile scales you can almost touch, dusty desert scenes that almost parch your throat. Ever wonder what the world looks like from a toad's bulging eyes? In a two-page spread you can almost feel Hoptoad's fear as humongous headlights bear down on his quivering body frozen mid-road. Will he make it across? Or will he be flattened into a toad tortilla? Get the book to find out!
