Little Frog and the Scary Autumn Thing: Little Frog
Autor Jane Yolen Ilustrat de Ellen Shien Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 sep 2016 – vârsta de la 4 până la 8 ani
It’s Little Frog’s first autumn, and she doesn’t like it one bit. It is not the green world she loves so much, but something scarier and ominous, filled with red and gold and yellow. And noise! WHIRRRRR. CHIRRRR. BAROOOOOOM. But encouraged by her Mama, who reminds her that "Most things that are scary are just new," Little Frog bravely sets out into this world. When her courage waivers, she starts to run and soon is lost, miserably lost. She finds her way to Papa Frog and he shows her what Mama Frog means.
In a warm and satisfying ending:
At last, arm in arm,
Little Frog and Papa Frog
happily hopped and danced
all the way home to The Pond
where Mama Frog had made
a fresh shoo-fly pie for dinner,
something all three of them knew well.
This charmer of a story is by multi-award winning author Jane Yolen, author of Owl Moon and the How Do Dinosaurs books. The wonderful autumn palette and adorable pictures are by newcomer Ellen Shi, who is not afraid of trying something new herself.

Recenzii
Publisher's Weekly
“Vivid autumn foliage is generally considered to be a thing of beauty, but those unfamiliar colors spell danger to a young frog. Mama Frog tells her daughter that 'most things that are scary are only just new,' and after exploring the forest on her own and sliding down a pile of leaves with her father, Little Frog starts to agree. Yolen doesn’t rush Little Frog’s emotional turnaround...Shi’s inviting mixed-media landscapes make it clear that the amphibian is never in danger. Little Frog’s reasoned reactions to her own nervousness hint at ways readers might tackle their own fears."
“Little Frog is classic Jane Yolen: elegant, surprising, humorous, and touching. And Ellen Shi’s illustrations are lovely and whimsical: a perfect match for a delightful story.” -- Mira Bartók, author of The Memory Palace, and the soon to be published The Wonderling: Songcatcher, also an animated film.
