good moral lessons, easy to read 
2007-05-17
Having read several of the Frog and Toad series, we've purchased many of Lobel's other books. My son (almost 4) is able to read several of the words in this book. It is a set of interesting stories with sentence structure that really supports a beginning reader. Frog and Toad come from different viewpoints but often talk out miscommunications in their dialogue. Their adventures often lead to deeper discussions with my son like why it is a positive thing to spend time alone and how trying to accomplish something may take several tries. I'd recommend all of the Frog and Toad books.
Excellent Ending to a Series 2007-04-10
Lobel artfully portrays the value of the differences between friends with simplicity in the last of the "Frog and Toad" series, with superbly funny stories and brilliant illustrations throughout. The perfect bedtime story or a great series to start a child's love of reading, this last book is a must have and maybe the best in the whole bunch. Toadally awesome!

Frog and Toad are an amazing buy

I have a 3 year old daughter that LOVES this series. The art is very "old" -but in a good way. She likes the story "The Shivers" most of all. You can't beat this series for the price, or the lessons learned.
Review by Alaisiah P.S. 39 and Michael P.S. 39 2006-04-12
You should read Frog and Toad because they can teach kids a lot of lessons. For example, if you are a kid and you want to learn to be nice to a friend then Days with Frog and Toad is a really good book for you. You'll also learn that sometimes friends aren't nice to each other. So, if you're the kind of reader who wants to learn about relationships then this is a book for you to read.

Do you want to be a hard working person like Toad and don't want to be lazy? Then Days with Frog and Toad is the book for you. The lesson is that you always should do your chores.
In the beginning, Toad looked around and all his stuff was on the floor. Instead of picking it up, he said,"I'll do it tomorrow. Today I will take life easy". Will he learn his lesson about doing his chores?
If you're a kid who doesn't like doing chores then this is the book for you. I would give this book five stars because it was a good book.

Get the Broadway Musical CD 2005-12-12
Frog and Toad are classic, and WONDERFUL. If you love Frog and Toad, you need to know Arnold Lobel's daughter collaborated to create a Broadway musical based on these books, and the CD with the songs from the musical ("A Year With Frog and Toad") is a MUST have for every child. We have given so many copies as gifts I've lost count, and everyone (adult and child alike) LOVES the CD. It has all the charm and humor of the books, and it brings the characters to life in a lovely and loveable way. Get the CD along with the Frog and Toad books -- the PERFECT gift package for any child age 1 to 8.

Excellent 2008-04-21
The book is excellent reading both for kids as well as grown-ups.
The language keeps the balance as few books do - not condescending, but appropriate for children
a must-have for young readers! 2007-12-27
The youthful adventures of the ever-sensible Frog and his seemingly naïve companion Toad demonstrate important qualities of lasting friendship. This dynamic duo cleans a house, flies a kite, shares ghost stories, celebrates a birthday gift, and even discovers benefits to being alone on occasion. In each of the five vignettes there is a unique balance between the elements of repetition and surprise. Also remarkable about this book is Lobel's one-of-a-kind illustrations. Each green and brown image brilliantly depicts action which serves as a cue for early readers. The simplicity of the drawings allows readers to focus on the text while enjoying the illustrations. In addition to the close match of images to words, the large print, short chapters, and overall themes of the book lend themselves to younger children ages five to eight. While Frog and Toad have many dissimilar characteristics, their differences do not get in the way of their close friendship and their love for each other. Lobel's masterpiece leaves children with several new lessons while remaining exceptionally entertaining.
Unique stories! 2007-12-01
I've bought several of the Frog and Toad books for my grandson (who is now six) and we loved them all, this one included. They are delightful and refreshing. There is a lesson in every book, and my grandson never loses interest in hearing the stories. One of the characters is a pessimist, the other an optimist, and I think this causes children to really think about life, and consider looking at life as the glass being half FULL! Frog and Toad really rock!
The Beloved Days with Frog and Toad 2007-08-26
My daughter's nursery is decked out in Frogs, so the discovery of these books made them books we had to consider. They are fun and the illustrations are grest. At eleven months she is too young to read them herself, but we read them to her - and she enjoys them. The stories are simple with a central theme - do good for others, treat your friends with respect, help your firends when they need help, laugh, and aporach life with adventure. These are great virtues to instill in young minds. If the books were made in cardboard stock, Teah would be even more happy with them - as it is she frequently grabs one of them when it's time for her bedtime story - and great bedtime stories they are. By the time she starts to read she will know the stories by heart, but that's ok - fond memeories of bedtime stories like these should help her build a lifelong interest in reading on her own.
