Toad Rage

Book Synopsis

Limpy can’t understand why humans hate all cane toads so much – they even squash them with their cars. He is determined to save his own family from ending up as flat as place mats. He sets off on a ‘mucas-chillingly dangerous and wart-tinglingly daring journey’ and risks everything to make humans see that cane toads are really very nice.

Our Review Panel says...

This is a really funny book that makes a popular choice to read aloud in KS2. Limpy the toad knows that human beings don’t think highly of toads, especially when they drive their enormous cars over them. Limpy sets about on a mission to save his family and help humans to see that toads are not so bad after all.
