Gracie, the Pixie of the Puddle

By Donna Jo Napoli

Book Overview

Gracie the frog knows that there's something special about her best friend, Jimmy. She's been listening to his wild stories since she was a tadpole. But even she can't believe his claims that his father is a human prince. All the same, when Jimmy journeys to the palace to find the magic ring that can save the frogs and humans from an evil hag, Gracie follows him. Against all her froggy instincts, she wants to help Jimmy protect the pond -- and win his love. But she hasn't counted on a vicious crocodile, stampeding cows, a bratty princess, and a palace cook with a taste for frog's legs! Book jacket.
