The inseparable Frog and Toad are introduced to readers through five wonderfully silly adventures. Like an innocent Laurel and Hardy, the two amphibians show the true meaning of friendship - Toad tells stories to Frog when Frog is sick, Frog helps search for Toad's lost button, and Frog writes a letter to Toad because he never receives any mail. These marvelous tales touch both the heart and the funny bone.
Five further adventures of two best friends as they share cookies, plant a garden, and test their bravery.

November 30, 2006: ?One morning toad sat in bed. `I have many things to do,? he said.? Toad?s morning sounds like my mornings! Immediately, I felt a connection with his character. The very first book I ever read was a Frog and Toad book. As a child, it was their undying friendship that kept me wanting to read more and more about their adventures. In this book, Frog and Toad help each other through their trials and tribulations ranging from making a list of ?things to do? and having it blow away, to growing gardens, eating cookies, ridding their lives of dragons and realizing that dreams aren?t real. If all friends had relationships like Frog and Toad, the world would be a crazy, but happy place!
