Once upon a time there were two good friends, a frog and a toad . . .

In this timeless and very funny collection of summer stories, Frog and Toad are ready to spend more fine, long days together. Whether they’re trying to come up with stories to share, embarrassed by how they look in a bathing suit, or struggling with their melting ice creams, one thing’s for sure, these two lovable characters really are the best of friends.

Also look out for: Springtime with Frog and Toad, Autumn with Frog and Toad and Christmas with Frog and Toad.
