The Mouse & The Frog
by Leslie Brazier Smit


We ALL want to be the BEST at something. MOUSE and FROG are competing to see which one of them is the best. They each have talents uniquely their own. But does that really make us better than someone else? MOUSE and FROG think they have it figured out. But do they, really? This charming story poem for children aged 3-7 introduces readers to two adorable characters and follows them as they discover how sharing our talents and working together can make us better.


“Audiences young and old will enjoy lingering over the images’ details...a book that imparts a useful life lesson. The brevity and simplicity of the text will encourage new readers...” –Kirkus Reviews
