The Great Frog

When her little brother Peedie worries about frog eggs beside a pond, Kit invents a powerful protector called the Great Frog. His questions inspire an increasingly elaborate imaginary world, until Kit must admit that she made the creature up. Peedie's response leads the siblings to consider what stories can mean even when they are invented. Katie Palazzola's picture book connects sibling affection, care for vulnerable animals, and the imaginative explanations children create for the world around them.
