Description
The beloved classic about friendship—a Newbery Honor Book!
Frog and Toad Together are best friends—they do everything together. When Toad admires the flowers in Frog's garden, Frog gives him seeds to grow a garden of his own. When Toad bakes cookies, Frog helps him eat them. And when both Frog and Toad are scared, they are brave together. School Library Journal called this story collection from Arnold Lobel "a masterpiece of child-styled humour and sensitivity."
Winner of the Newbery Honor award, Frog and Toad Together is a Level Two I Can Read book, geared for kids who read on their own but still need a little help. Whether shared at home or in a classroom, the engaging stories, longer sentences, and language play of Level Two books are proven to help kids take their next steps toward reading success.
The classic Frog and Toad stories by Arnold Lobel have won numerous awards and honours, including a Newbery Honor, a Caldecott Honor, ALA Notable Children's Book, Fanfare Honor List (Horn Book), School Library Journal Best Children's Book, and Library of Congress Children's Book. The series has also been adapted into a Broadway musical and an Emmy-nominated animated series on Apple TV+.
This timeless collection features five heartwarming stories about what it means to be a good friend:
- Unforgettable Friendship Stories: From baking cookies to being brave together, Frog and Toad show that everything is better with a friend by your side.
- Funny Stories for Kids: Giggle along as Toad shouts at his seeds to grow and Frog helps him find the willpower to not eat one more cookie.
- Social Emotional Learning: These gentle tales explore big feelings like fear, patience, and loyalty in a way that is reassuring for young children.
- Perfect for Bedtime: With five separate chapters, this collection is ideal for reading one story a night to wind down.
- Builds Reading Confidence: As a Level 2 I Can Read book, the simple text and engaging plots empower new readers to proudly say, "I read it myself!"
