Book excerpt: Lilliana, a young nature lover, adores chorus frogs. Her room is already full of frog posters and toys but one night as she listens to frogs singing, she decides to bring home some real, live frogs. Chorus frogs are hard to find and catch, but that won’t stop Lilliana! Oh dear. Chorus frogs are very small and very fast and very loud. The frogs have escaped! But Lilliana, with a little inspiration, knows just what to do. Based on author and illustrator Scot Ritchie’s fond memories of exploring Camosun Bog as a child (he really did bring home a box full of frogs), Lilliana and the Frogs is a humorous story with playful illustrations that will inspire young readers to explore nature—but to leave it outside.
