He’s been bubbling since he was a little tadpole. Will Bubbles have to leave Frog Pond? Where will he go? And what happens when danger comes? Find out in this fun picture book about friendship and self-respect for preschoolers and all ages.



My Review

Amanda (age 7) enjoyed listening to me read Bubbles: Big Stink in Frog Pond while looking at the pictures. She giggled at the funny parts. I asked her what she learned about the story. She replied, "It doesn't matter how you stink or look; it matters about the heart." That's an important message for all of us to be reminded of and it's good to start learning this when we are young.

Bubbles: Big Stink in Frog Pond teaches about friendship and attitudes of the heart, using a funny story with silly illustrations. The story is easy enough for young children to follow and understand. I recommend this book for girls and boys ages 3 to 7.
