Response/Rating: 4; Frog and Toad are best friends and through reading this book it made me think back to my best friend and how similar her and I are to them. I found myself giggling out loud to some of their experience and relating it back to my life. The wittiness throughout this book is remarkable, yet easy for children to pick up on.
One question you would ask before a read aloud: What do you like to do with your best friend?
