Tulsa and the frog is a fun early reader book from Horrid Henry illustrator, Tony Ross. Tulsa and the frog follows young Tulsa who hates her name. Tulsa decides to imagine that she is the people in her storybooks from Pippi Longstocking to Goldilocks. However what if she was princess, what would her name be, Your Majesty of course! So Tulsa makes herself a crown and sets off on an adventure.
Tulsa and the frog is a perfect book for reading together with children aged 5-8 years. The story will have kids imagination running wild imagining they are various characters from fairy tales. I myself would have loved to be Snow White. : ) The illustrations remind me of the Horrid Henry illustrations, that is probably because the illustrator is the one and the same. Overall Tulsa and the frog is a fun, imaginative read that will leave kids wanting to pretend to be a storybook character's all day long!
