Picture Storybooks
A charming ecological fable of community and friendship from award-winning author-illustrator Simon James.
Frog and his friends all live happily together on the river. At least they do until Beaver comes along. Beaver is determined to build the biggest and best dam that anyone has ever seen, but it's so big that it stops all the water and Frog and his friends are forced to move. Frog tries to warn Beaver that his dam is too big, but inconsiderate Beaver just won't listen... A charming picture book with an environmental message from the acclaimed and award-winning Simon James.
