A frog, a magic spell book, and one big, angry yellow ball. What could go wrong? Everything! This hilarious early reader comic is now available in Spanish.

None of the magic spells in Frog's magic spell book work on the deflated ball he found. Frustrated, Frog kicks the ball and watches as it flies up in the air, getting bigger and bigger until it comes back down--uh, oh! Frog tries to outrun, trick, and hide from the ball in the library but the ball always finds him, knocking down bookshelves, ruining a puppet show, and sending papers flying everywhere along the way!

Author-illustrator Kathy Caple has created a hilarious story filled with slapstick humor and a healthy dose of careful-what-you-wish-for. The varied panel sizes and styles give kids plenty to pore over and return to again and again.
