A red-headed Princess Ivy reluctantly makes promises to a bright green talking frog who retrieves her favourite ball from the bottom of his pond. Sharing her food and drink with him is bad enough but giving him a goodnight kiss is almost too much. This retelling of the well-known fairy tale has the predictable happy ending and is amusingly interpreted and illustrated. The large format and invitingly presented text makes this book ideal for solo reading.
