Synopsis

Frog is going to jump this log. And it will be easy... or so he thinks! Bursting with braggadocio, misplaced bravado, and some truly unforgettable sportswear, Frog's frustration builds as his feeble efforts fall short. Will he ever clear the log? And what awaits him on the other side...? Author Stephanie Stansbie's pared-back, confident text leaps off the page alongside debut illustrator Jack Viant's bright, expressive artwork in this crackingly funny picture book. Look out for the satisfying twist at the end and a subtle lesson on misplaced arrogance. Perfect for fans of the fabulously subversive humour found in picture books by Jon Klassen, Chris Haughton, and Lane Smith. Children and adults alike are guaranteed to be jumping to read about this this bold, boastful Frog again and again.

À propos des auteurs

Stephanie has been a children's book editor, and then an author, for most of her adult life. She adores editing and writing in equal measure and has always worked on illustrated books, where the art is as important as the word. The books she has written have been translated into more than 15 different languages. Stephanie lives in Oxford, England, and enjoys goofing about with her family and friends, going to the theatre and chocolate porridge.

Jack Viant is an illustrator and educator who splits his time between drawing picture books and teaching students how to draw and make picture books at the university where he works in Plymouth. Jack is big on '90s Cartoons and tries to take this visual influence into his work where possible.
