Why read it?

1 author picked A Spoonful of Frogs as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The text is simple, but brilliant. The illustrations are gorgeous and add the perfect old-time cooking show vibe. Both kids and adults will be grinning through the whole book. Just pure fun!
