A Year With Frog and Toad tells the story of two very different friends and their adventures through the seasons. Set along the Jordan River in Salt Lake City, it is a simple story with a deeper message. This story is about friendship and the fun and enjoyment that friendship brings to all of us. It does not matter that Frog is a frog and Toad is a toad. Their differences make their connection even more interesting because they can share with one another the beauty of what makes each of them special. Along the way, they are joined by friends of all different types: birds, squirrels, moles, a mouse, a turtle, a lizard and a snail. Together, these characters play, work and help one another. The true moral of Frog and Toad is that friendship and love are life's true joys.
