Book Reviews of Th Frog Who Wanted to See the Sea

Book Review: The striking illustrations vividly contrast light, shadow, and perspective in this wondrous tale of discovery.
Summary: 5 Stars

"The New Yorker" illustrator Guy Billout presents his latest children's picturebook, The Frog who Wanted to See the Sea, about a timid little frog named Alice with a grand dream, who dares to venture from her comfortable, humdrum pond in her quest to see the sea for herself. Her journey will lead her to bigger and bigger bodies of water, and introduce her to unusual friends - including the mysterious reflection of the moon. The striking illustrations vividly contrast light, shadow, and perspective in this wondrous tale of discovery.
