It's Mine!
A joy to see this in paperback at last! It's been a successful assembly standby for many years. An island is inhabited by three quarrelsome frogs who all feel they have dominion over one element of it. How they come to realise that they must share, and indeed actually need each other, makes for a good tale. Leo Lionni manages to deliver a modern fable with such a light touch and with such beautifully appropriate illustrations one is left warmly satisfied rather than feeling chastened or lectured.
