Description
The Pond in the Park offers a gentle introduction to the incredible life cycle of a frog while helping children aged 3-5 overcome their own worries about change and new beginnings.
Millie has started at a new school and making friends hasn't been easy. One morning, Millie's dad points out a pond filled with frogspawn and explains that soon they will go through BIG changes. Just as the frogspawn will grow and transform, can Millie embrace the changes in her life?
This STEM picture book for children offers:
- A gentle introduction to the life cycle of a frog combined with a sweet narrative about Millie and her blossoming friendship.
- A powerful partnership with Woke Babies, who create inspiring and culturally diverse books featuring black and minority ethnic children.
- Bright and appealing illustrations and an engaging story to teach children about the lifecycle of a frog.
This is the ideal book for children who are starting school and nervous about building friendships, teaching them that it’s normal to have worries about new beginnings. This STEM story also sees frogspawn transform into frogs and teaches about the lifecycle through an engaging story for little ones. So, what are you waiting for? Let's head to the park where our adventure begins.

Taylor Swifts new album on repeat, reading the boys some new kids books I got advanced copies of, and the sun is shining….a happy Friday in my book! ☀️📚🎶
These books were so cute! I can’t wait to show my daughter the bug book as she’s been really interested in ladybugs lately. The Happy Stories for Animal Lovers was absolutely adorable! It was full of such beautiful illustrations and fun facts about animals. The Pond and the Park was a really adorable story about friendships. Respect the Insect book was very interesting to my son who has been hesitant with flies coming inside. Hee hee. He always really enjoyed Little People Big Dreams about Stan Lee and comics. My daughter is going to love Gabriel’s Toothfairy Tale as she’s been waiting anxiously for her tooth to fall out. Torla and Smorla was a really cute book my younger song loved. The Bison and the Butterfly was precious! Add these books to your kids summer TBR lists for summer reading programs. Thank you @netgalley for these advance copies!

My four year old really enjoyed this book. He loved learning about the life cycle of the frogs. He loves going to the park. He wants to search for worms now after reading this story. The illustrations are adorable. They bright and colorful. I love this series of books. Highly recommend!

Great story intertwining life cycles in spring with friendships. This will be a great read in the spring with my class.

The illustrations are very cute and kept my littles engaged. They went hand-in-hand with the content. There is also children featured who are different and appearances and come from diverse backgrounds.
The content was reassuring that friendships takes time to unfold just like the frog eggs turning into frogs. The kids learn a little about the frogs life cycle while friends are being made showing that all things take time.
Thank you NetGalley, Flo Fielding, Nathalia Rivera and DK Children for the digital copy to review.
