Max Velthuijs 
Frog in Love 

In the very first story to feature the loveable amphibian, Frog is feeling most unwell. He keeps getting hot, then cold, and something inside his chest is going ‚thump, thump‘. Hare says it means he’s in love! But who with? And how can he show his devotion – perhaps by performing the biggest jump ever?
