This is a review for a children’s book called Ted the Friendly Frog and the Tale of the Diamond which I was sent to review. The thoughts in the review are mine and my families.
Charlie picked out Ted the Friendly Frog and the Tale of the Diamond to read to Charlie and Lily this week because it has a Frog which Jason would like.
As well as other animals and a diamond Lily would like. With the story teaching a lesson and featuring play time Charlie said Alyssa would like this book as well.
Charlie was able to read Ted the Friendly Frog and the Tale of the Diamond on his own and even David sat down to listen to the story time. All three of us enjoyed learning about Ted and his grandfather and his friends.
Charlie and I want to purchase a copy of Ted the Friendly Frog and the Tale of the Diamond for Leslie to read to Elijah and we are going to share our copy with Granny Sherry to share read to Payton.
Preview:
Ted the Friendly Frog and the Tale of the Diamond captures the journey of a brave, adventurous frog as he encounters meaningful challenges and teachable moments. With a significant purpose behind his story, author Scott McCall shares lessons for young readers through the first release in his Ted the Friendly Frog book series.
McCall’s adorable character, Ted, lives by a pond and spends his froggy days playing with his friends, hopping in the grass, and swimming very fast. One day, Ted’s grandfather tells Ted something important – he’s going away for a few days, and could Ted look after his special diamond? Ted must not play with the diamond with his friends or even show anyone, for it is an old tradition to pass the diamond down to the next frog in the family, and it’s a very valuable stone.
In a bouncing and rhyming tale, Ted learns the important lesson of listening to his family, even if it is more fun to play, and discovers it is never too late to learn from a mistake.
