The pond goes quiet after Sophie shoos the frog away, and my four-year-old actually gasped at that page. It's a gentle little lesson about how one loud croaky voice still matters on the farm. We've read it at bedtime three nights straight now.

My niece asks for this one every single night now, and I love that the story doesn't get preachy about the lesson. The moment Sophie chases the frog off and the farm goes quiet is genuinely clever writing.

I didn't expect a kids' book about a croaky pond frog to hit this hard, but the moment Sophie chases him away and the farm goes quiet, I felt that. The illustrations of the pond at dusk are lovely too.
