About Frog On A Blog
Dear Visitor,
I created Frog On A Blog in order to provide a forum for fans of children’s picture books to share their views on books they have read. I am happy to receive comments from all fans of children’s picture books. Tell me what you liked or didn’t like about a picture book you’ve read recently, or not so recently. Share your thoughts about your favorite authors or illustrators. Offer some recommendations to other picture book fans. Feel free to introduce some information relevant to the world of children’s picture books that fans might find useful or interesting. Keep in mind that children may view this site, so please post appropriately. And above all, enjoy Frog On A Blog!
Lauri Fortino
P.S. Don’t forget to visit your local library often. They’re one of your best sources for children’s picture books.
Oh, one more thing-look for occasional comments by Finley. He IS the “Frog On A Blog”. (For more information about him, click the About Me link in the sidebar.)
I strive to post accurate information on my blog. If you should happen to see something that isn’t, feel free to write me a note in the comment box below. Personal opinions expressed by me or by visitors to my site are just that-personal opinions and you have the right to agree or disagree.

Hello Lauri: My name is Emma. I am a former clinical professor of language disorder (with a sub specialty in reading). I would like to read Findley’s story to a group of youngsters in an effort to raise donations for St. Baldrick’s; it is a charity organization for children’s cancer research. His story just seems like a natural! How may I obtain permission? Do you have illustrations to go along with the narrative? Thank you for Frog On A Blog, it is a friendly & informative place to visit!
