Froggy and Karma Judith Shorter

When misjudged, accused, and singled out, what do you do? Stay determined, and keep it moving! At least that is how Froggy handles himself when misunderstood by his ever-judging rival, Karma! This exploding tale explores how miscommunicating and poor listening skills can cloud sound judgment. Use this book to introduce early learning in recognizing literary devices such as conflict, foreshadowing, and theme. You can point out how the author uses diction to express attitude and tone. Do you see a little onomatopoeia going on? Read. Learn. Grow! Judith Shorter is a proud graduate of Guilford College of Greensboro, NC., with a degree in English. She remains in the beautiful state of NC with her husband, James, and their nine children. When not homeschooling, she writes and illustrates books for children with a primary focus on struggling readers.
