Frog and Toad series, by Arnold Lobel

Readers/First Chapter books are very popular in my library.  This month I decided to read/reread some of the classics of the genre, the better to recommend them to our young readers.

I was also looking for stories that I could adapt for my storytimes, telling them with puppets or the felt board.  Frog and Toad stories are made for this.  They are short, memorable, funny, and touching.  I love the gentleness of these tales.  Life is very calm and problems are never too big that a good friend can't help overcome them.
