Mindful Muslim Review

A classic tale of friendship, Frog and Toad show each other compassion, care, and loyalty. They’re also not afraid to tease each other when the opportunity arises, but it’s always out of love and in good humor. With loneliness growing across all sectors of society, this book teaches children what it means to be a good friend – to be there for each other, to look out for each other, and to gently correct each other’s mistakes. This collection includes all four Frog and Toad books in the series, and takes readers through the seasons of the year and the cycles of life.
