Toad on the Road: Mama and Me

Toad is back in his second read-aloud adventure—this time with Mama! Tender and funny, this mama and me story from author-illustrator Stephen Shaskan is perfect for kids learning to read.

With bold, eye-catching art and a bouncy rhyming text, this is the perfect gift for Mother’s Day and for fans of Llama Llama, Red Pajama!

Fox has a flat. Goat ran out of gas. But help has arrived from Mama and Toad.

Go, Mama, go!

Go, little Toad!

Help your friends get back on the road.

“The call-and-response construction of the tale will lend itself well to performing for preschoolers. A catchy cautionary tale.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review for Toad on the Road)

“The digitally created characters in the colorful illustrations are sweetly expressive...Shaskan’s message of friendship and helping each other would be a great discussion starter for any early childhood class.” - School Library Journal
