Are you looking for a children's picture book that is STEM related and full of nature? Frogness by Sarah Nelson feels like the perfect book if you have this in mind!

This book about frogs, nature and a child's imagination is a must read! Honestly, this makes me so nostalgic for the science themed books from my childhood (in picture book form, of course). This book is about exploration and innovation all while looking for frogs. A creative, young girl sets on her journey with her dog to go show more find frogs. The writing is wonderful and felt like it had the perfect story telling voice (because, like a total nerd I read some of it out loud).

The illustrations are also beautiful and colourful. It all felt so fitting for the story. And finally, the non-fiction section at the end to do a little teaching! I love educational moments in my picture books!

I love this book and highly recommend it. It is super fun and a great way to introduce nature and STEM at an early age (in a super fun way!)

Four out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and Owlkids Books for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.

A child goes looking for frogs. That's the story. It is simple, but lovely. There are many action words kids will get a kick out of saying and the illustrations are a soft touch that gives this book a calming presence.
