-----------------
Laughter, action, colour, rhyme, silliness, chaos, a king, a feast and a fairytale setting The Royal Leap-Frog ... has all these in the story of a frog, a flea and a grasshopper in a jumping contest - Sunday Times
-----------------

A hilarious tale of rivalry, boasting and custardy chaos from the bestselling creators of The King's Birthday Suit.
When a flea, a grasshopper and a frog compete to show the King who can jump the highest, it causes CHAOS in the royal dining hall. Who can jump the highest? Can the clever leap-frog use his wits to win?
And will the Emperor's dog EVER get rid of the flea?
This funny and irresistible retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's classic fable, 'The Leap Frog', will make children laugh - AND show them that brains are sometimes better than brawn! With a pitch-perfect rhyming text by bestselling Peter Bently, and gloriously detailed illustrations by award-winning Claire Powell, this is an unmissable treat.
