Synopsis

When Benjamin finds a tiny toad in the forest near his house, he falls in love with it right away. It would make the perfect pet! Benjamin takes the toad home and sets it up in an old fish tank, with all the fresh water and bugs it needs. But no matter what Benjamin does, the tiny toad won't eat. How can Benjamin make his tiny friend happy? Will it ever feel comfortable in its new home? Tiny Toad Goes Home is a beautiful story that tugs on your heartstrings but ultimately leaves you feeling good. It teaches children about environmental responsibility and respect, stewardship of nature, and how to have empathy for creatures that are very different from ourselves. The world needs more kindness, especially directed toward nature's vulnerable creatures, and Benjamin's story reminds us that, at the end of the day, one's love for nature's creatures is sometimes best shared from afar.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Lawrence Litzgus is a recently retired science and biology teacher who taught everything from Grade 4 through to Grade 12 over his thirty-four-year career. As a boy, Lawrence spent a great deal of time out in nature, catching toads, snakes, salamanders, and whatever else could fit in a jar. It wasn't until later in life that he came to realize that nature is best observed in nature, not taken home. These days Lawrence plays hockey, hikes, roller blades, takes photos, and reads. He spends time in nature mountain biking, camping, and fishing. Although often tempted, he no longer takes any of the beautiful creatures he finds home with him. He and his wife, Sherry, have two sons, Benjamin and Cameron. They live in Stoney Creek, Ontario.
