Book overview

Some frogs just won't take the hint... and thank goodness for that!

When a young boy and his dog spend a sunny day at the creek, they make a surprising new friend - a silly, wide-eyed frog who seems to have taken a liking to them. But what happens when the frog keeps following them home... again and again and again?

Every morning, the boy tries to do the right thing: return the frog to the creek where he belongs. But this frog has other plans. With each return, he hops right back into their lives - and into their hearts.

There's a Frog in My Hair by Patty Lennox is a whimsical tale of persistence, unlikely friendship, and the joy of unexpected companions. Bursting with humor and vibrant illustrations, this story will have kids ages 3-7 laughing out loud and asking to read it again (and again... just like the frog).

Perfect for bedtime cuddles or classroom read-alouds, this story opens the door to meaningful conversations about:

  • Kindness to animals
  • The magic of friendship
  • Accepting the unexpected

Whether you're a parent, teacher, or frog-loving friend, this feel-good adventure will leap into your heart and stay there.

Get ready to laugh, bond, and fall in love with the frog who just wouldn't go away.
