Great review! Must be a great book too if the only complaint is the main character's name. (Little Green doesn't seem too bad to me.) I love that there's a twist at the end. I feel like there aren't enough of those with books for this age group. I also like that they aren't being unrealistic and show that there are limitations.

A book about a little frog who doesn't give up is an easy way to teach a good life lesson for children. Definitely checking this out and congrats on being BOTD.

Another great review Bookowlie! I love the message in this one. I dislike when children are told they can do whatever they want to. That's just not realistic. What's that saying, though? Shoot for the moon and you'll hit the stars? Thanks!

I read this book because of the well written and meaningful review. I shared it with my granddaughter and we were both surprised by the ending.

I wish the title was a little more incorporated into the cover but the artwork still does look great. This seems perfect for children. Congrats on BOTD.

Sounds like this book provides an important lesson. It's also cool that there's a surprise ending even though it is a children's book. Great review!

Nothing like a fun children's book with a charming animal character, with rhymes, that also teaches a lesson, or lessons... and great illustrations besides!! Loved the review... well done! :)
