Synopsis
A gentle folk tale about self-worth, contentment, and learning to be glad to be yourself.
There once was a toad who lived alone in a small hole in the ground. He felt small, weak, and unimportant, and wished he could become something greater. So he set off down the road, hoping to find a more powerful creature to become.
Along the way, the toad sees a pig, a dog, a farmer, a mayor, and even a swarm of bees. Each one seems stronger than the last, until the toad discovers that power is not always what it appears to be. In the end, he learns that even a small toad has his own special strength.
With simple storytelling, classic folk-tale charm, and whimsical illustrations, Only A Toad is a meaningful picture book for young readers and families. It is perfect for bedtime, classroom read-alouds, libraries, homeschool lessons, and children who enjoy animal stories with a gentle lesson.
A sweet and memorable story for anyone who has ever felt small, overlooked, or wished they could be someone else.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. A Boy Named Chong is a moving, educational children's story inspired by the Southeast Asian refugee experience.Chong is a young Hmong boy who knows many things about Laos and Thailand, but when his teacher asks him to share what he has read, the English words do not come easily. As he looks down at his shoes, his thoughts carry him back through the remarkable journey that brought him to his new school in the United States.Chong remembers growing up among the mountains and rice fields of Laos, playing in the sun and living close to his family and the natural world. That peaceful life changes when violence reaches his village and his family is forced to flee. They hide in the jungle, march for days toward the Mekong River, and make a dangerous crossing into Thailand. In a crowded refugee camp, Chong faces loss, fear, unfamiliar customs, and years of waiting-but he never loses his courage, curiosity, or desire to learn.At last, Chong and his family travel to the United States, where he encounters a new language, a new school, and a very different way of life. Although he sometimes doubts himself and struggles with English spelling, Chong discovers that belonging does not require forgetting where he came from. His memories, family history, and perseverance remain an important part of who he is.Told in a lively, rhythmic style that works especially well for reading aloud, A Boy Named Chong introduces young readers to Hmong culture, refugee migration, resilience, cultural adjustment, and the challenges faced by children learning a new language. The story balances difficult historical experiences with warmth, humor, and hope, while its detailed illustrations help bring Chong's memories and journey to life.Ideal for families, classrooms, libraries, social studies lessons, multicultural education, refugee-awareness discussions, and readers interested in Southeast Asian history, this book encourages empathy and thoughtful conversations about courage, displacement, identity, education, and finding a new home.Chong's story is one of hardship, strength, and hope-a reminder that every child carries a story worth hearing. A young Hmong boy remembers his family's dangerous journey from Laos to Thailand and a new life in America. Told in lively rhyme, Chong's story celebrates courage, learning, cultural identity, and hope. This item is printed on demand.
