Please read the synopsis below and take a look at the two toad illustrations in my prior two posts: 1. The Wedding and 2. title page illustration for "The Treasure Hunt". After doing so, please take the quick 10 question survey at:
The purpose of this survey is to give me feedback on the book project I am working on so that I can proceed in a directly informed manner.
This picture book is geared for children ages 4 - 8.
Synopsis
After finding a treasure map, three toads embark on a treasure hunt. They go up and down, in and around, over and under until they find the spot marked “X”. Among the treasures they unearth is a photo album. As they go through it, they discover that it is their family album. Each of the toads is excited when they see their tadpole photo. That is, until they come to the page where Squirt’s tadpole picture ought to be - but it isn’t there! Instead, there is a photo of Papa Toad and a red car. Budgey recognizes it as Papa Toad’s favorite car but can’t remember what happened to it. Squirt is hurt as to why his tadpole photo has been replaced by a photo of Papa Toad and his favorite car. As the toads go back home, they spot the red car! They follow it and as they do, they soon realize it is going to their house. It is then that they discover the truth of the missing photo. As the truth is revealed, Squirt gains more insight as to how very much indeed he is loved.
Thank you very much for your feedback! Feel free to direct others to take this survey as well - especially kids!
