A small frog’s answer to modern pressures

Paul Bog, a little frog introduced through Charlie James’s “Little Frog” sketches, takes readers through a day in his life while offering comic advice on burnout, money, anxiety, friendship, and other everyday concerns. His suggestions—such as spending hours staring at a still life or resting beside water—turn the language of self-help into deliberately impractical frog wisdom. Ink-and-watercolor illustrations fill out Paul’s world of meadows, wishing wells, naps, and small treasures. The book’s central joke is the contrast between modern demands and Paul’s preference for resting and dillydallying; its guidance is presented as humor, not practical instruction.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Fans of Charlie James’s “Little Frog” sketches
  • Gift shoppers seeking an illustrated humor book
  • Readers who enjoy comic takes on burnout and self-care

Are you burned-out, exhausted, and tired of hustling? Do you ever want to throw your head back and scream "But I'm just a little guy!"?

Within these pages, little frog Paul Bog walks you through a day in his life and shares advice on how to navigate modern existence, including:
  • Avoiding Burnout: "For every hour of work I do, I spend three hours staring at a still life painting."
  • Saving Money: "I cannot save money for the future. The future is too unknowable. I can, however, toss a little coin into a nearby wishing well and hope for the best."
  • Anxiety: "My only advice for limiting anxiety is to spend fifty to ninety percent of your life supine near a large body of water."

This hilarious and charming guide to the "little guy" lifestyle will inspire anyone who wants to slow down and muck around.
  • Paul Bog the Small Frog offers a softer, sillier alternative to hustle culture, with funny advice for slowing down, resting more, and taking modern life a little less seriously
