Courage the Cowardly Frog

Courage the Cowardly Frog teaches young readers how frogs are born in the water and look like small wiggly minnows only without fins. As they grow they lose their tails and grow small back legs, then smaller front legs. Frogs are true amphibians and can live either on land or in the water.

Courage crawled out of the water and forgot he was born there. To him the water looked like a dark, ominous place where he might drown if he jumped in. His mom named him Courage hoping that name would make him brave to go back into the pond.

Read how Courage gets over his fears and enjoys sitting on a lily pad and singing with all the other frogs.
