Little Gems: We Are Not Frogs

Morpurgo, Michael/ Usher, Sam

Children’s literature legend Michael Morpurgo teams up with illustration star Sam Usher for a rollicking countryside adventure story.

The frogs always beat the toads at long jump but the toads don’t mind – anything for a quiet life. But then the children and Mutt the dog come in search of some good jumpers, and the toads see an opportunity to get their own back. Soon the poor frogs have been gathered up and put in an ice-cream tub, and they’re hopping mad!

Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant or dyslexic readers aged 5+.
