New York Times bestseller Jackie Urbanovic brings us a cute and clever twist on the classic fairy tale The Frog Prince. Hopper is a frog . a wild frog . a hopelessly hoppy, rambunctious frog that doesn't fit in at the pond. But he can't figure out why. Until one day when a wise turtle suggests that maybe he's not really a frog at all. Maybe he's a prince. So starts Hopper's adventure to find his princess and unlock his true royal self.
Will our hero find a princess? And if he does, will his transformation be everything he had hoped for? A hilarious story about finding your true friends and your true self, Prince of a Frog is a triumphant and special read-aloud that brings a new meaning to the term: Happy (Hoppy) Endings! " The book's true richness, though, lies in its illustrations -- watercolors given texture by fine pen-and-ink hatching -- which are almost as lush as the Indonesian landscape itself. They contain an abundance of detail and even sly jokes . [and] moments of deliberate visual ambiguity add to the fun." --Publishers Weekly (Komodo!).
