Early Book Review: Nobody Likes Frogs: A Book of Toadally Fun Facts by Barbara Davis-Pyles, Liz Wong

Nobody Likes Frogs: A Book of Toadally Fun Facts, written by Barbara Davis-Pyles and illustrated by Liz Wong, is currently scheduled for release on April 25 2023. Why would you pick up a book about frogs? Nobody likes them! At least according to Persnickety Q. Turtle. In this humorous narrative nonfiction picture book the text cleverly puts the reader in the role of the “expert” to educate a persnickety turtle about the amazing amphibian known as the frog. With the reader's help, Persnickety Q. Turtle learns intriguing frog facts, such as they can breathe through their skin while underwater and their eyes help them swallow. Pick up this book and help Persnickety find out all the reasons frogs are such incredible creatures.
Nobody Likes Frogs is a fun and informative picturebook that uses a cranky turtle to help dispel some myths (real and imagined) about frogs and share some great information about them. I thought the facts were well chosen and shared, and I thought the art work did a great job of capturing and keeping the readers attention and helping to expand on the points made on the page. I think this delivers on what the book promises ad will be an enjoyable, engaging, and educational book for young readers.
