Godfrey used to be an egg, then he was a tadpole. Now, Godfrey is a frog. He changed quickly and it was all very exciting. He''s waiting for the next change . . . but it seems there isn''t one.Is this it? Godfrey thinks. It''s not very exciting. Bear has wonderful claws, Deer has impressive antlers, Heron has majestic wings. Godfrey buries himself in the mud and hides away from the world. He doesn''t want to be just a frog.Can Brinley the minnow, Radcliffe the snail, and Penelope the shrimp convince Godfrey that a frog is a pretty special thing to be?
Industry Reviews
**Winner of the Teach Early Years Award 2024: Picture Book Category** and **Awarded SILVER in Best Book (Under 4) category in the MadeForMums Toy Awards 2024** `"Fabulous illustrations, deadpan humour, and a heart warming message about loving who you are to make this rather more than another life-cycle book. It's about acceptance, feeling confident in your own skin, and recognising that you are different from everyone else and that each of us is unique. "' Joy Court, The School Librarian `"This wonderful story of friendship and acceptance conveys the important message of loving who you are."' Emma Davis, Judge of the Teach Awards 2024 `"Alex Latimer's fabulously funky portrayal of Godfrey will ensure he endears himself to young audiences who will love being in the know about a frog's life cycle."' Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub `"So much creativity and imagination have gone into creating this delightfully entertaining and lightly informative picture book."' Michael Thorn, Achuka `"Godfrey will steal hearts, make everyone laugh- and hopefully help readers realise that they are pretty fantastic just as they are!"' Through the Bookshelf `"With a gallery of creative and characterful illustrations, a witty narrative featuring a cast of colourful creatures, and brimming with Latimer's classic deadpan humour, this playful and informative picture book is a reminder that friendship is one of life's most important building blocks."' Pam Norfolk, Lancashire Post `"A funny but telling story about being happy with who you are and probably particularly relevant in a society in which we're constantly comparing ourselves with others."' Andrea Reece, LoveReading4Kids `"Alex Latimer is a master at writing confidence affirming stories... Learn to love yourself for who you are, and perhaps check out your own jumping and sticky tongue skills with this funny and positive picture book."' Louise Ellis-Barrett, Armadillo Postbag Picks
