Comments

CIP info A folktale about two green frogs who always disobey their mother, explaining why green frogs cry out whenever it rains. This Korean folktale shows children the importance of listening to their parents. The illustrations are ok, the story was okay. The two young frogs always do the opposite of what their mother says. The book is good to show what another culture has for stories, but past that the book didn’t leave much of an impression on me.

Illustrations are done in oil paint and pencil.
