When a flea, a grasshopper, and a frog engage in a competitive leap-frog challenge to impress the King, the ensuing chaos ensues within the royal dining hall. The question remains: who can jump the highest? Can the clever leap-frog outwit his opponents and emerge victorious? And will the Emperor's dog ever manage to rid the hall of the pesky flea? This delightful and captivating rendition of Hans Christian Andersen's timeless tale, "The Leap Frog," not only brings forth laughter but also serves as a valuable lesson for children, highlighting the importance of intelligence over physical strength. Written with exquisite rhyming text by the acclaimed Peter Bently and adorned with stunning illustrations by the award-winning Claire Powell, this book is a must-read for children of all ages.
