Leo Lionni is one of those illustrators you should know! This one is especially charming, especially if you have any children who are struggling a bit with generosity. ;)

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

Three selfish frogs live together on an island in the middle of Rainbow Pond. All day long they bicker: It’s mine! It’s mine! It’s mine! But a bad storm and a big brown toad help them realize that sharing is much more fun. With characteristic clarity, simplicity and exuberance, Leo Lionni makes it possible for kids to see themselves through the antics of others who share our world.

FROM SARAH:

Leo Lionni's classic tale about a fish and a frog. You might remember this one from your own childhood!

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

Two best friends, a minnow and a tadpole, are practically inseparable until the tadpole grows legs and decides to explore the world beyond the pond. When the tadpole, now a frog, returns to tell his friend of the extraordinary things he’s seen, the minnow, now a fish, tries to follow in his footsteps, but quickly finds that land is not what he expected. Friendship truly saves the day in this imaginative tale of a fish out of water.

FROM SARAH:

A classic from Leo Lionni!

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

I'll admit it—I'm an easy sell on any book by Leo Lionni! I loved this book as a child and have enjoyed revisiting it with my own children.

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

It's an extraordinary day on Pebble Island for three frogs when one of them discovers a beautiful white egg. They've never seen a chicken egg before, but they're sure that's what this must be. So when the egg hatches and out crawls a long green, scaly creature, they naturally call it . . . a chicken! From award winning-artist Leo Lionni, here's a hilarious case of mistaken identity that children are sure to delight in.
