Inhaltsangabe

Secrets of The Toad is a series written for the early middle grades. These contemporary tales narrated in magical realism show young readers just how valuable acceptance is in our day to day lives.In Book 1, Reflection, Emma, looks into the mirror and she does not like what she sees. She longs to be like her cute brother, Jake, and she struggles to fit in with her peers. Emma often visits a nearby woods where she can just be herself and find enjoyment. But one day all of that changes. While relaxing and gathering leaves amongst the trees after a rough day at school, an ugly, monstrous voice bellows out. Emma runs for her life from this place where she once found peace.The most horrible day at school soon follows. It is just so bad that Emma doesn’t care what scary thing is in those woods. She finds the courage to return, and there she makes a most amazing discovery. Just as you can’t judge a book by its cover, neither can you judge a person (or a toad for that matter) by its voice. Emma soon finds herself on a magical and mystical journey of self-acceptance - with a wise old toad as her guide.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

My name is Patricia (Trisha) Page. I consider myself to be a complicated work in progress and a forever learner. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology and a master's in elementary education. My teaching career has expanded for over twenty years. I believe that this has given me insight into what children enjoy and what will benefit them. When teaching, I would tell my students, "Make your story come alive. Paint a picture with your words." I just loved seeing them get excited about their writing, and now I am excited about my own.I am writing a children's book series that deals with acceptance. The first book, SECRETS OF THE TOAD - REFLECTION, deals with the approval of self. SECRETS OF THE TOAD - PLAY BALL focuses on accepting adverse circumstances. This third book, SECRETS OF THE TOAD - THE WIN, deals with bullying and the acceptance of others. In all three books, wisdom and guidance are bestowed on siblings Jake and Emma as they experience magical journeys with the mystical toad Tobias.
