When Rat comes to live at the edge of their wood, the animals decide they don't like having a stranger in their midst.

This is one of a series of books about Frog; look out also for Frog Finds a Friend, with the same trademark exploration of the emotional highs and lows with which all small children are familiar. -- Yvonne Coppard * Armadillo Magazine *
