Frog's spell?

by elfgreen (WorldCat user published 2010-02-09) Very Good

Permalink

The story opens with a small green frog who finds an old book of spells; this frog prefers books about pirates or a beautiful princess. He decides to take a page from the book of spells and become a handsome prince. The book’s pages now split in half and the frog begins to change into a rabbit, a snake, a newt, a bird and eventually a handsome prince. The handsome prince seeks out his princess to kiss. But can he remain a prince? The small print in the end pages hints at an explanation for the story’s ending. The illustrations combine collage with pen and ink and a hint of glitter against a black background. The book’s split pages and the torn pages from the old spell book work wonderfully well with the sparse text. The torn scraps that are not used as part of frog’s spell provide additional humor as do the opportunities the split pages provide. The book’s jacket suggests ages four to eight but older readers may appreciate the humor even more than younger readers. A wide variety of readers can enjoy this sly twist on the traditional enchanted frog.
