The Royal Leap-Frog out today!
Claire Powell’s latest picture book, The Royal Leap-Frog, is out today! Her second collaboration with author Peter Bently, The Royal Leap-Frog is a hilarious retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic fable ‘The Leap Frog’ and is full of Claire’s inimitable detailed illustrations.
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?
Available now in paperback!
