This book picks up where "The Prince of the Pond" left off. Jimmy, the prince's frog child must go to the castle where his now human father is holding the terrible hag's ring. It was mildly interesting to see Jimmy be turned into a human boy, but otherwise, this was just a boring and bittersweet story.

This book was really terrific! It had all the things I like and frogs too! Frogs are very interesting. The end was very sad, I almost started to cry. This book is about a frog named Jimmy, there is a person called the hag who puts a spell on Jimmy. She didn't finish the spell because she didn't have her magic ring. The spell will be broken when a girl kisses him. Who is the girl? Read this book to find out.

Have you ever read a book where a frog gets turned into a human? Well, I just read Jimmy, The Pickpocket Of The Palace and this is what happens.

In this book, an evil hag turns the main character, Jimmy (a frog), into a boy. She does this by using an evil ring. So now Jimmy is on a mission to find the ring and turn back into a frog. But, there are many obstacles in the way.

My favorite part in the book is when the hag turns herself into a rock. It is my favorite because it is when the pond becomes safe.

I think that this book is for 4th-5th graders because it might be challenging for someone younger. There are also words that they might not know. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars because sometimes it was boring.

I enjoyed the book very much. What will happen to Jimmy? Will he ever be a frog again? Will his family be okay? Read Jimmy, The Pickpocket of the Palace to find out!

Have you ever read a book where you can switch from frog to human, and back again? Hi, I've just read Jimmy The Pickpocket of the Palace, by Donna Jo Napoli.

In this book, the Hag needs the crystal ring to do terrible things with it. The only problem is that the Hag thinks the ring is at the bottom of the frog pond where Jimmy lives. The Hag will do anything to get the ring, even dry up the pond. If you want to see if Jimmy can get the ring, and give it to the Hag before she can dry up the pond, read the book to find out.

Jimmy and I have some things in common, but not many. One thing in common is we both are brave. Another is that we're both kind.

The proper audience for this book is ages 6-12 years old. This is because this was not a challenging book to read.

If you want to see it Jimmy can save the pond, read this book to find out.

Have you ever been stuck in a different body and had to do a mission?

In this book, a frog turns into a young boy named Jimmy. Jimmy has to save his family from suffering and find his father. The Hag has a ring that can do many bad things, one of them making the pond have no more water. To get the ring he has to go to a palace and find it for himself.

I can compare Jimmy to my brother because he never gives up and they both love their families dearly. I can also compare Gracie, a little green frog, to a clown or a wonderful pet because she is always there to make people happy or to get into trouble. Gracie is also my favorite character because she spiced up the book.

The appropriate audience for this book is anywhere from preschool to 8th grade.

Will Jimmy be able to save his pond and his father in a different body? Or will his human form stop him?

Have you ever imagined what life would be like in a different body? What about having to go on a mission to save your home? Well I did, and that is why I enjoyed reading this book.

In this book, a frog named Jimmy turns into a boy and is trying to get the hags ring. He also has to save his home from the evil hag and to try to find his daddy. While he was in the castle, he tried to get the ring from the prince. He also had to escape with his friend, Gracie, that is captured by the princess, Sally.

I think this is an excellent book and people who like mystery and adventure books should read it. I would say it is good for ages 5 to 12.This book is really wonderful for kids and is a just right book. I hope you take my advice and read this book.

Will Jimmy save the pond from the hag and find his daddy? Find out if you read Jimmy the Pickpocket of the Palace by Donna Jo Napoli.

Although I haven't just read the book from what I remember it wasn't the most gripping of tales. Jimmy wants to find his Dad and is transformed into a human in the process. The ending is sad although realistic. Oh sure there are moments where you wonder what happens next like when Jimmy needs to rescue one of his frog friends from the spoiled princess but this book didn't have the same gripping storyline that the first one had.
