Publisher's Synopsis
Confidence and truth in yourself is key to fulfillment. Not sure if you are born with it but I know that your environment can change you if you lose control over it. What I hope to succeed and accomplish for the reader of this book or the one being read to, is that he or she will realize that people have to keep away from those who bring them down. They are not your real friends. A true friend wants you to feel good about yourself. If something or someone makes you feel bad, you need to believe in your self worth and raise your spirits up by doing things and hanging with those that make you feel great. No one is worthy of any power over you. Remember, you are born because you are special. Herbert is a frog who got separated from his family during a horrible hurricane. He ended up living in a community filled with other frogs that were very unkind to him because he was different. After being laughed at one last time, for not being able to leap like the other frogs, he decided to leave. Herbert's dad never gave up hope that Herbert would someday return home and so while he was out searching for him, as he did many times before, Herbert, in his search for a new home, ended up saving the life of who he believed was a total stranger that he just met in a very unusual scenario. A frog named Frank, who was out searching for his lost brother. Believing in the possibility that they may be related, Frank brought him home to see if he might be his missing brother. From two strangers meeting, they found they were brothers. They were brought together through faith, is the only real answer. After a year of building up his confidence, he decided to go back to the community of mean frogs and entered the Annual High Jump contest to prove to himself that he was ready to be who he was meant to be. A person who would stop believing others above himself. He also went back to see the one person who he realized he missed and wanted to bring her back to meet his family. Enjoy the adventure!
