In a lively swamp, Frog and Toad are locked in a rivalry, each claiming superiority. Frog boasts of his hopping skills, while Toad prides himself on strength. Their competition heats up until a menacing alligator threatens them both. Forced to team up, they realize their differences might not be so vast after all. Can these unlikely allies find common ground and outsmart their toothy foe? Dive into this humorous tale of friendship and unity, where differences become strengths and unexpected bonds are forged.

From the publisher

Two amphibians vie for superiority–before banding together against a toothy foe–in a humorous, light-hearted fable about seeing past differences. Frog is a frog and Toad is a toad. They are clearly totally different from each other. So when an unlucky fly mistakes Frog and Toad for two frogs, the two are determined to set the record straight. After all, Toad is obviously stronger, while Frog is unmistakably the superior hopper . . . and before long, things start to get a bit heated among the amphibian population in the swamp. But when the two rivals have a close encounter with a snappy alligator, both Frog and Toad see the benefit of joining forces. Perhaps they’re not so different after all? In his authorial debut, author-illustrator Ben Mantle offers a laugh-out-loud look at putting aside differences and celebrating the fact that friends come in all shapes and sizes.
