Once upon a time, a frog found a book. After reading “Spell to become a Handsome Prince” on a page fragment he tried to piece the spell back together . . .

There are lots of laugh-out-loud moments to be had with the mix-and-match pages as Frog struggles through a host of jumbled spells and extraordinary guises (Rabbit? Fabbit?! Prabbit!?!) in search of his fairytale ending.

Another wonderfully inventive book from the creator of WOLVES, winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal and the Nestlé Children’s Book Prize Bronze Award.

Review:

"The black backgrounds, strong use of paper torn images, and watercolor character depicitons are better than a harvest night! This creative use of art and the split pages make this book a unique standour among picture books...Recommended."--Library Media Connection

Book Description:

A love-lorn frog and some very mixed-up spells!
