* "First-time author Petty's dialogue between a frog father and his son makes its point about accepting one's nature with a big grin. . . . The story might create similar gratitude in the minds of readers-or it might just make them giggle." - Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW
"A lively look at self-acceptance." - Kirkus
"This amusing story ends with a laugh and a much more content frog." - School Library Journal
"Silliness and deadpan humor combine into a hopping good story of being happy with who you are." - Booklist
"A paean to self-acceptance wrapped in snappy dialogue and illustrated with richly colored comic paintings." - Wall Street Journal
"Petty and Boldt provide just enough predictability to hook youngest readers, then deliver a delightful twist or two to create surprise and satisfaction--for both the green hero and the many fans he'll make with this book." - Shelf Awareness
"This lighthearted exploration of identity will delight as a readaloud." - The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
